A connection links one store, seller account, or ERP account to your Balta Labs workspace. You can add several accounts from the same provider. Give each one a clear name so you can recognize it in filters and exports.

Provider Records used in Balta Labs Connection method
Shopify Store orders, refunds, payments, fulfillment details, and supported transfers Store domain and app credentials
Amazon Seller orders, financial transactions, FBA shipments, and supported transfers SP-API credentials and selected marketplaces
Allegro Marketplace orders, completed refunds, and billing entries Seller authorization

Add an account

  1. In Balta Labs, choose the workspace that should own the connection.
  2. Open Settings → Connections and select Add account.
  3. Choose the provider. If another account already uses that provider, choose it again; existing connections remain separate.
  4. Follow the guide for your provider in the table above for the fields or authorization flow.
  5. After the account appears as connected, select Test. Use Explore to inspect the available source data.
  6. Open Orders → Configuration → Sources. Start the first import and watch the source status. A connected account alone does not mean that its historical orders have finished importing.

Check the result

The connection card shows whether the account is connected or needs reconnection. The Sources area shows import jobs, coverage, and errors. If an import fails, read its latest error before retrying. For Amazon, check each selected marketplace separately.

Imported orders appear in Orders → Dashboard. The OSS report and internal transfers use the same underlying connections, subject to provider support and available fields.

Manage credentials safely

Use Manage to rename a connection or replace credentials. When you edit an existing credential-based connection, leave a secret field blank to keep its current value. Use Remove only when you intend to disconnect that account from the workspace.
