Integrating Amazon FBA with the Flexport Portal

Seller Central Owner Account Access

The following two steps require you to first login to your Amazon Seller Central account. For authorizing external applications to access sensitive seller information, you must be logged in with the seller central credentials that are listed as the owner of the Amazon shop.

You can view the list of seller central account credentials under settings->Account Info->User Permissions.

Step 1: Enable Catalog Sync

In order to have all your FBA inventory products listed correctly and available to select for a shipment, you will need to enable catalog syncing with the Deliverr Amazon application. Deliverr is the former name of Flexport.

If you already have an Amazon integration for "Fulfillment By Deliverr" (FBM) you can skip directly to step 6.

  1. On the side menu, select Integrations -> Add Integration1.Add_Integration.png
  2. Select the Amazon integration and click "Add Integration" 2.Amazon_Integration.png
  3. Click "Connect Amazon"3.Connect_Amazon.png
  4. You will be redirected to seller central, where you should click the checkbox and confirm.4.Oauth.png
  5. You will be redirected back to Flexport Portal, and you will now see Amazon listed on the left under "Integrations."                                                         5.Amazon_Channel.png
  6. When you click on Amazon, you can update the relevant settings. Make sure that the box is checked for "Sync FBA Catalog" and click "Save changes."6.Modify_Settings.png
  7. Important: If you do not want Deliverr to fulfill FBM orders for you, please uncheck the "Fulfill FBM Orders" box and Save Changes. If you do not do this, Deliverr will start ingesting and attempting to fulfill any FBM orders on Amazon.

Step 2: Enable the FBA Application

In order to enable Deliverr to create shipments in Amazon, you need to enable the Deliverr FBA App. It's a really simple process that will only take a few minutes.
