Using the vidaXL API for Product Sync with Your Store
The vidaXL API is the fastest, most accurate way to keep a dropshipping store in sync with vidaXL's catalog. Because vidaXL is a wholesaler with an official API built for resellers, product sync can be fully automated — no manual updates, no stale prices. Here's how it works and what to set up.
What the API syncs
- Products — titles, descriptions, images, and variants imported into your store.
- Prices — kept aligned with vidaXL, with your markup applied on top.
- Stock — updated near real-time so out-of-stock items are hidden automatically.
- Orders & tracking — orders can be routed to vidaXL and tracking pulled back to your store.
API vs. XML feed
vidaXL offers both an API and an XML feed. The API is better for near real-time stock and order operations; the feed is a simple, reliable way to bulk-import the catalog. A good sync tool can use either — many stores rely on the API for stock/price freshness.
How to set up product sync
- Get your vidaXL reseller access and API credentials.
- Connect via a sync tool like DroFX rather than building the integration from scratch.
- Map fields — vidaXL product data to your store's product fields (including variants).
- Set a markup rule so selling prices are calculated automatically.
- Schedule syncing so prices and stock stay current without manual work.
Best practices
- Rewrite product titles and descriptions for SEO instead of importing raw text.
- Curate a focused catalog rather than importing everything at once.
- Keep stock syncing frequent to avoid overselling on fast-moving items.
Bottom line
With the vidaXL API and a sync tool, product sync becomes a set-and-forget system: accurate products, live stock, and current prices across Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, or PrestaShop. Set the markup and schedule once, and spend your time on marketing instead of spreadsheets.
