In this article, we shall go through in detail method #2 for authorization with ChannelAdvisor. There are only a few simple steps required and you only need to do this once. Here are the five steps for generating the required tokens to authorize with ChannelAdvisor.

1. Create developer authorization in ChannelAdvisor.com backend

Have your client or if you are the client, login to your CA backend and go to My Account > Developer Network > Account Authorizations. There you will create a new application and all you have to do to do that is enter a name and description. a new developer authorization and request a SOAP developer key. The key will be your login for the next step.

2. Login to Console

Login to the console with your SOAP developer key obtained from the last step.

3. Creating an Application
