4. Step-by-Step Guide to Obtain eBay Account Credentials

Follow these steps to collect all required information for linking your eBay account to AdlerDo.

Step 1: Create an eBay Developer Account

  • Click on “Register”.
  • Enter the required information to create an account.
  • Confirm your account via email

Step 2: Create a New Application

  1. In your dashboard, go to My Apps → Create a new application
  2. Enter the application name, description, and intended purpose

  3. After creation, obtain:

    • Client ID: Identifies your application

    • Client Secret: Used alongside Client ID for authentication

Keep these values secure; they are required to link the account in AdlerDo.

Step 3: Set Up Redirect URL

  • During app creation, eBay will request a Redirect URL
  • Enter the URL of the system you want to link, for example:
    https://yourcompany.com/ebay/callback
  • Copy it accurately, as it is required for OAuth authentication

Step 4: Obtain a Refresh Token

  1. Go to User Tokens in your app
  2. Select the eBay account you want to link

  3. Follow the OAuth process to grant permissions:

    • The user approves the app permissions

    • After authentication, you will receive a Refresh Token

  4. Record its expiration date (Refresh Token Expires At)

The Refresh Token allows automatic session renewal without repeated login.

Step 5: Obtain Trading Refresh Token (if required)

  • Some commerce operations (like product listing or inventory updates) may require a Trading Refresh Token
  • Generate it following the same OAuth process
  • Record the expiration date (Trading Refresh Token Expires At)

Step 6: Obtain Developer ID

  • In your developer account, go to Account Details
  • Your Dev ID will appear here
  • Sometimes used for authentication or app identification when interacting with eBay APIs

Step 7: Determine Trading Form and Trading To

  • Trading Form: Type of commercial operation (e.g., selling, inventory management)
  • Trading To: eBay account or entity used for trading (usually the linked eBay email)

  2. Enter all required fields:
  • Account Name

  • Client Secret
  • Refresh Token
  • Refresh Token Expires At
