Integrating with other services

[chrisegg]

Does eStore have a hook built in that would allow me to easily integrate with other services? I have a fulfillment service that will be filling and shipping orders for me, but I need a way to get them the customer information after a purchase is made. They prefer it to be automatic, and they have the ability to set up an API, but I am not sure if eStore will function this way?

Thanks

WP eStore can send the IPN (payment notification) that it receives from PayPal to any URL that you specify.

The fulfillment services already know how to read a PayPal IPN and get all the payment and customer details. When eStore receives the IPN from PayPal after a payment it will forward that to a URL that you specify and then the fulfillment service can take over from there.

Awesome! Do I set the URL in paypal or eStore settings. If eStore where?

Go to eStore’s settings page then the “3rd Party Integration Tab”. Now look for the field named “PayPal IPN Post URL”. Specify the URL there and the IPN will be sent there after a payment.

I originally added this option for memberwing plugin but looks like it is a useful option (I might make it generic down the path).

I sent you an email about doing some custom programming for me? Did you get it? It is in regards to this same inquiry.
