Beauty Fort as a Source
Summary
Beauty Fort is a wholesaler specializing in beauty and personal care products — cosmetics, skincare, haircare, and fragrance from well-known brands. The connection requires a Username, Password, and a Test Mode toggle, all provided by Beauty Fort. Set Test Mode to Yes only when using test credentials; set it to No for live operations. The integration runs Get Inventory (Primary and Secondary), Send Fulfillment Requests, and Get Shipments. For extended operation details and mapping guidance, contact support@flxpoint.com.
Beauty Fort has one connection type — direct API authentication with your Username, Password, and a Test Mode toggle, all provided by Beauty Fort. Add a Beauty Fort source, start configuring an operation, and when Flxpoint prompts you click + New Connection, enter the values, then Test Connection → Save Connection.
support@flxpoint.com.Test Mode toggle — set to "No" before going live with inventory or orders
The New Beauty Fort Connection screen includes a Test Mode toggle. Set it to Yes when using test/sandbox credentials during initial setup. Switch to No before enabling live GIP, Send FR, or Get Shipments schedules. Running operations in Test Mode with live credentials (or vice versa) may cause silent failures or orders that do not reach Beauty Fort's production system.
Credentials (Username + Password) come from Beauty Fort — separate from website login
Your Username and Password for the Beauty Fort integration are API credentials provided directly by Beauty Fort — separate from any Beauty Fort website or retailer portal login. Contact your Beauty Fort account representative to obtain credentials. If you are switching from Test to Production, ensure you also have your production credentials before toggling Test Mode to No.
GIP daily for full catalog; GIS more frequently for delta updates — Archive on one job only
Run Get Inventory Primary once daily to import Beauty Fort's beauty and personal care catalog. Use Get Inventory Secondary on a more frequent schedule for pricing and quantity refreshes. Enable Archive/Un-Archive on one job only — enabling it on both simultaneously creates conflicting archive states.
For operation-specific setup and mapping guidance, contact Flxpoint Support
