¿Cómo agregar cuentas de Mercado Libre?

Now that you have our plugin installed, you can start adding the Mercado Libre accounts you want to manage. If you manage several, you will have to add each of them separately. Remember that you can add as many accounts as you want.

The way of adding accounts changes if you have access to the master account or if you have been given a partner account. Then choose one of the options.

  Before you start, you must be logged in to the Mercado Libre account you are going to add, in the same browser where you have Zendesk open. If you use several accounts, remember to log out and enter Mercado Libre with the next account you want to add, and you cannot be logged out of other Mercado Libre accounts, even if they correspond to another country. 

It is important not to use incognito windows when adding an account.

The first thing you should do is to coordinate with the person who has access to the master account to have their assistance in one of the steps, since they will have an exchange of links that will allow you to add the account.

It is important that the link exchange is generated by a means that does not generate preview of the URL, for example, if you try to do it by whatsapp it will fail. Therefore, we recommend that the exchange is done by email.

Remind the person to make sure he/she is logged into the master account. When he/she receives the email, copy and paste the link you provided in the tab or window where Mercado Libre is open. That way you will be able to authorize our integration and you will see a message similar to the following screenshot:

¿Cómo configurar las primeras automatizaciones?

Automations are similar to triggers in that they allow you to configure certain actions, but differ from triggers in that they are executed once per hour, rather than every time the ticket is updated. This makes them particularly useful for working time-dependent events, such as how long a ticket has been unresolved.

We recommend modifying the default one, here is how to do it.

Only administrators can create and manage automations.

Step 1

In the sidebar on the left side, click on  On the Administration Home Page, in the "Business Rules" section, click on "Automations".

Odoo • Texto e imagen

Step 2

Click on the automation that says "Close the ticket 4 days after the status has been defined as resolved", click on the 3 vertical dots, then click on "Edit".
