Connect Your WooCommerce Store with an AI Chatbot

2. Get Your WooCommerce Credentials

To connect your app or chatbot to WooCommerce, you’ll need these:

• WOOCOMMERCE_CONSUMER_KEY – A unique key that allows access to the WooCommerce REST API with specified permissions.
• WOOCOMMERCE_CONSUMER_SECRET – A secret key paired with the consumer key for secure API access.

To get the WOOCOMMERCE_CONSUMER_KEY and WOOCOMMERCE_CONSUMER_SECRET, follow these steps:

Step 1: Log in to Your WordPress Admin Dashboard.

1. Open your browser and go to your WordPress admin URL (for example, http://mystore/wp-admin).

Step 2: Install WooCommerce (if not already installed)

• Go to Plugins → Add New in your WordPress dashboard.
• Search for "WooCommerce", click Install Now, then Activate.

Step 3: Navigate to WooCommerce Settings

1. In the left-hand sidebar, click on WooCommerce.
2. Then click on Settings from the submenu.

Step 4: Go to the Advanced Settings

1. In the WooCommerce Settings, click on the Advanced tab at the top.
2. Under the Advanced tab, click on REST API.

Step 5: Create a New API Key

1. Click on the Add Key button.
2. You will see a form that asks for the following details:
   • Description: Enter a description (e.g., "My API Key for external app").
   • User: Choose the user for which you want to generate the key (preferably an Administrator account).
   • Permissions: Select Read/Write (or Read if you only need to retrieve data).
3. Click on the Generate API Key button.

Step 6: Copy Your API Keys

1. After generating the API key, you will see two new fields:

• Consumer Key
• Consumer Secret

2. Copy both keys and save them securely.

Step 7: Use Your API Credentials

• WOOCOMMERCE_CONSUMER_KEY: Use the copied Consumer Key.

• WOOCOMMERCE_CONSUMER_SECRET: Use the copied Consumer Secret.

• E_COMMERCE_NAME – The name of your WooCommerce store (e.g., "My Store").

To get the E_COMMERCE_NAME, follow these steps:

• General Settings: Navigate to Settings → General.
• Edit Site Title: Update the Site Title field to your desired store name (the title is your E_COMMERCE_NAME).

• WOOCOMMERCE_STORE_URL – This is the web address where your WooCommerce store is accessible.

To get the WOOCOMMERCE_STORE_URL, follow these steps:

• Log in: Open your WordPress admin at http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin and log in.
• General Settings: Go to Settings → General.
• Locate URL Field: Look for the WordPress Address (URL) field; this is your WOOCOMMERCE_STORE_URL.
