Troubleshooting
- What should I do if I’m not seeing my Shopify orders in EctaroShip?
- Ectaroship queries the orders from Shopify periodically and it can take up to 15-30 minutes for an order to appear in Ectaroship. After you made the initial connection, please allow up to 15-30 minutes.
- Since EctaroShip is a label creation platform, it ignores the orders that doesn’t have an address. For that reason, the orders that will be picked up from your stores won’t be shown in EctaroShip.
- Similarly, if EctaroShip can’t receive the address information for an order for some reason, the order is not received. EctaroShip connects to your Shopify account via the custom application that you created above and Shopify doesn’t share the address information via API if you are on Shopify Basic plan according to their documentation. We observe that some old Shopify accounts can still access this information even if they are on the Basic plan. However, if your orders aren’t received by Ectaroship and you’re on Basic plan, this is the most likely reason for not being able to receive the orders.
- In this case, you can consider upgrading to a higher plan in Shopify
- or create a ticket on EctaroShip and we can work on together for finding an alternative solution.
