Back to topAn e-pilote data source is the database of your (or one of your) online shop. That database contains informtion about your orders, order lines, customers, products, etc. from the beginning of your business. You can connect e-pilote to as many data sources as you have.
Back to tope-pilote is presently compatible with: Prestashop, Oscommerce and Boutikone. If your online business is based on another shop system, please contact us. We will be glad to help you connect your source to e-pilote as soon as possible.
Back to topThere is no limit to that number. The only limit is the total number of orders you can load into our system. It depends on the subscription formula you choose. (For example: 500 orders for 9€/month, 20 000 orders for 39€/mois etc.). Data linked to your orders (order lines, customers, products etc.) are imported at no extra charge.
Back to topA connector is a secured script that link a data source to your e-pilote space. It is in fact a simple PHP file that you can download from your e-pilote account and place in a directory on your shop web server. Once activated, it filters, encrypts and sends your data to your e-pilote space, between 00h00 and 06h00 GMT+1.
Back to topTo have your data uploaded to your e-pilote space, you must set up your data sources then download and install the matching connectors on your online shop web server. The data upload will then take place between 00h00 and 06h00 GMT+1.
Once your data source is added to your account, you must download and install the connector for this type of source.
