WooCommerce API disabled error (REST API)

Enable Legacy REST API in Wordpress/WooCommerce

If your WooCommerce products don't import or display in SKU IQ, if you are experiencing API-related problems, or if you're receiving messages when attempting to connect SKU IQ to your WooCommerce account, you must enable the Legacy REST API within your WooCommerce settings in Wordpress.

  1. You’ll receive an error message in the SKU IQ dashboard indicating that the API is disabled.

  2. Log into your Wordpress website account. Usually this is something like http://yoururl.com/wp-admin
  3. From here, select WooCommerce on the left menu. In the WooCommerce menu, click Settings, then click the Advanced tab, and then click Legacy API. Check the box to enable the Legacy REST API, and then click Save changes.

  4. In your SKU IQ dashboard, click the here link within the error message to restore your WooCommerce connection. Your products will begin importing into SKU IQ.
