This article is for whoever connects an Overstock account inside DropStream — a fulfillment provider (3PL) or a merchant who manages their own DropStream account. You’ll add the store through DropStream’s Add Connection wizard. If a fulfillment provider is setting up DropStream for you, you don’t need this page — just gather your Overstock API credentials and send them over.
What you’ll need
- A DropStream account you can sign in to.
- Your Overstock API Username, API Password, and Warehouse Code — see Overstock - Get Your API Credentials.
- Your Overstock SKUs configured correctly — see Overstock - Configure SKUs.
How DropStream connects to Overstock
