eBay Import Tool FAQ:How do I access the eBay Import Tool?
You can login to the admin console and click on the 'Catalog -> eBay Tool' option.
What's an eBay token?
An eBay token is the first requirement in order to import your product listings from eBay to your eStore.
How do I generate an eBay token?
It's very easy to generate an eBay token for yourself. All you need to do is login to the admin console, go to the 'Catalog -> eBay Tool' option and select the 'Get eBay token' option provided there. You will then be directed to the eBay site, where you are required to login with your eBay user ID and password. By doing this the system will generate a new eBay API token which is also known as an eBay t token. At this juncture, please note that at no point is your eBay user ID or password stored in our database. The site is completely secure and only the new eBay token generated is stored in our database, to facilitate easy import of product listings. Also note that the token generation procedure is a one-time process only.

Once the eBay token has been generated, you can see the various product listings in your eBay account. Simply select the product or products which you wish to import and then click on 'Confirm'.
