CartModules: CJ Dropshipping Shop Connector

Import Products and Sync Orders from CJ Dropshipping

Connect your CS-Cart Multi-Vendor store to CJ Dropshipping -- one of the world's largest dropshipping platforms with millions of products across every category. Import products with full variant support, automatically sync inventory levels, push orders for fulfillment, and track shipments -- all from your CS-Cart admin panel.

This addon is an extension for the Shop Connector Manager (v1.2.0 or higher required).

Key Features

• Bulk Product Import -- Import products from CJ Dropshipping's catalog with categories, pricing, images, and descriptions
• Full Variant Support -- Product options (size, color, etc.), variant-level SKUs, pricing, weight, and dimensions are all imported
• Category Mapping -- Map CJ Dropshipping's 3-level category tree to your CS-Cart categories
• Real-Time Inventory Sync -- Webhook-driven stock updates keep your store quantities in sync with CJ warehouses
• Automatic Order Sync -- Paid orders are pushed to CJ Dropshipping for fulfillment via their v3 Order API
• Shipment Tracking -- Tracking numbers and carrier info are automatically added to CS-Cart orders when CJ ships
• Logistics Webhooks -- Real-time shipment status updates (outbound, in transit, customs, delivered)
• Order Cancellation -- Cancelled or failed orders in CS-Cart are automatically cancelled on CJ Dropshipping
• RMA / Dispute Handling -- Return requests trigger dispute creation on CJ Dropshipping with product details and reason
• Product Webhooks -- New products, updates, and deactivations from CJ are reflected in your store automatically
• Multi-Warehouse Inventory -- Aggregates stock across all CJ warehouses with country-level visibility
• Test / Live Mode -- Test mode imports a small subset of products so you can verify the integration before going live
• Rate Limiting -- Built-in API throttling prevents hitting CJ Dropshipping's rate limits
• OAuth2 Token Management -- Handles access token generation and automatic refresh transparently
