1. Introduction to Walmart Sync & Link Listings
The Walmart Sync & Link Listings integration connects your Flxpoint catalog with your Walmart Marketplace store, keeping product details like price, quantity, and status updated. This integration is designed for sellers of all sizes, ensuring your Walmart listings stay in sync with your inventory and can be linked efficiently using identifiers like UPC or SKU.
2. Why Use This Integration?
This integration helps you:
- Keep Data in Sync: Updates price and quantity on Walmart listings based on your Flxpoint catalog.
- Link Listings: Matches Flxpoint products to existing Walmart listings using identifiers like UPC or SKU.
- Control Visibility: Automatically delists products on Walmart when they’re out of stock.
- Manage Updates Efficiently: Processes updates with minimal manual effort, using scheduled syncs.
3. How the Integration Works
The integration follows these steps to sync and link your listings:
1. Retrieve Listings: Flxpoint uses GET on the endpoint
items?nextCursor=* to fetch SKU and UPC data from Walmart. 2. Link Listings: Matches Flxpoint products to Walmart listings using your chosen identifier (e.g., UPC or SKU).
3. Sync Price/Quantity: Updates price via
feeds?feedType=PRICE and inventory via feeds?feedType=INVENTORY. 4. Get Acknowledgement: Receives an Acknowledgement ID after each feed submission, confirming no errors in the processing report.
5. Delist Products: If enabled, delists products using
items/{sku} when out of stock, sending one SKU per call. 6. Execution: Runs manually or on a schedule (e.g., every 30 minutes).
4. Configuration Options
Customize the integration to fit your needs:
- Connection: Select your Walmart Marketplace account.

- 2 Connect to Walmart: Select an existing connection or set up a new one with your Walmart credentials.
- 3 Verify Shipping Template: Ensure a shipping template is set up in Walmart (Settings > Shipping Profile > Seller Fulfillment > Shipping Templates) to enable order syncing.
- 4 Create a Mapping Template: Define which Flxpoint shipment fields to send to Walmart (details below).
- 5 Schedule the Sync: Enable scheduling (e.g., every hour) or run manually with “Run Integration.”
- The mapping screen is labeled “Mapping Template” at the top, e.g., "Sync Orders 1."
- Buttons available: Delete to remove the template, Duplicate to copy it, and Save to save changes.
- Sections include:
- Settings: Options like connection, shipping template, and scheduling.
- From Value: Flxpoint fields, like Shipment (e.g., Carrier, Tracking Number).
- To Walmart Fulfillment Field: Walmart fields, like Carrier Name, Tracking Number, or Shipping Method.
This section provides key details about the Walmart Sync Orders integration to help you understand the process:
-
Walmart Integration: Connects to your Walmart Marketplace store using the
orders/{orderId}/shippingendpoint to update shipment details. Connection settings are configured through API credentials. - Product Visibility: Does not support hiding, unhiding, or delisting directly; use the Sync & Link Listings integration for these actions.
- Compliance Requirements: Requires a shipping template to be configured in Walmart for successful order syncing.
- Sync Delays: Jobs may take 2–5 minutes to start and up to 15 minutes to complete, depending on the number of orders.
Tip: Ensure your shipping template is correctly set up in Walmart to avoid sync failures, and test with a small batch of orders to confirm mapping accuracy.
