EasyWebshop API
The Application Programming Interface (API) bridges your webshop to external platforms such as payment providers, delivery services and office applications. We have put in tremendous effort to make the API easy to use, even for non tech nerds. This will in some cases allow our users to connect their webshop themselves instead of having to rely on an expensive developer.
Thanks to compatibility with general practices and industry standards, connections to our API can be made quickly and possibly with the help of AI generated code. Read this page carefully if you want to create a connection yourself.

API
Activate the EasyWebshop API at Settings > Modules > Easywebshop API using the activation code MODA.
If EasyWebshop API is not shown in the menu, navigate to Settings > More options > User experience level and change the user experience level to Expert.
Only activate the API if you are going to use it. For security reasons, deactivate the API when not in use.
- API endpointCopy
- https://easywebshop.com/apiAlways use the https version! Authenticating over plain-text http may cause your API Token to be leaked.
Do not include the www sub domain. - ?format=xml
- Change the output format from JSON to XML.
- ?pretty=1
- Pretty output for improved human readability. Remove this to save bandwidth in automated systems.
When using multiple parameters, separate with & (ampersand). For example: ?format=xml&pretty=1.
On the command line, escape ampersands like this: ?format=xml\&pretty=1.
Use our API with care and only query or update what you need. Do not use polling if the API Push feature can be used instead. Limits are imposed to prevent wasting server resources.
Authentication
Click the Add button to create an API Token and select the desired permissions for this token.
For added security, only select permissions that are strictly necessary. Revoke permissions when they are not needed.
After saving, copy your API Token for use in your application or to send it to a developer. You can only do this once: if you lose your API Token, you will have to delete it and create a new one.
Use your API Token with care.
Do not send your API Token over an insecure communications channel such as email or WhatsApp. We recommend SimpleX Chat if you need to send your API Token to a developer. Do not store your API Token on an insecure device. We do not store your API Token at all, only a hash of it.

Categories can be viewed only. There is no API implementation for creating, editing and deleting categories because these features are rarely used and would create additional attack surface. Managing categories can be done by using the web interface.

You can find a detailed explanation of all product fields on the documentation page of Basic product management and Advanced product management.
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
productID | string | Article. A unique and user defined identifier for the product. Avoid special characters and duplicate or ambiguous identifiers. When editing a product the productID is used as an identifier. The productID can only be changed with product management. |
parent_productID | string | If you want this product to be a product variation, enter here the productID of the parent product. Variations act like products on their own. They are connected to a parent product instead of a category and are therefore not visible in product lists. Sub variations are not recommended and can only be set with product management. |
category | string | The name of the category in the default language of the webshop. Not applicable for product variations. |
name:lang | string | Name. You can set names and descriptions for all languages, even if they are not activated in the webshop. Available languages (ISO 639-1): cs, da, de, el, en, es, fi, fr, it, ja, ko, nl, no, pl, pt, ro, ru, sv, tr, zh |
description:lang | string | Description Available languages (ISO 639-1): cs, da, de, el, en, es, fi, fr, it, ja, ko, nl, no, pl, pt, ro, ru, sv, tr, zh |
price | string | Price. Can be decimal, integer, empty or a string. |
stock | integer | Inventory. Leave at 0 for infinite stock or disabled stock. |
status | string | Status Available, Available but not online, Pre-order, Sold Out, Invisible, Customers only, Price visible for customers, Choose property, Hide status, custom0, custom1, ..., custom9 |
image:no | string | Include an image URL to upload product photos. The first image is the main photo, the next four are sub photos. When a product photo already exists, it will be replaced. After uploading, the images will be scaled proportionally according to the webshop settings, thumbnails will be created automatically and the image will be synchronized to multiple file servers. Make sure that each image has a valid URL, a maximum file size of 25MB, a valid extension (.jpg, .jpeg, .png or .gif) and a valid MIME type (image/jpeg, image/jpg, image/png, image/gif). Uploading images takes time and server resources. Avoid replacing the same images when updating products. If you encounter time-outs, upload a limited number of products in batches of 25 images each.1 - 5 |
thumbnail:no | string | Thumbnails are generated automatically. This is a read only parameter. |
weight | decimal | Weight. SI unit kilogram. |
vat_code | integer | Tax rate. VAT Rate set at invoice settings. 0, 1, 2 |

review | boolean | Reviews. Enable or disable product reviews. |

Limits
EasyWebshop is optimized for redundancy and extremely fast website load times. Behind the scenes, there is a server cluster geographically spread over multiple data centers in various countries. This has a cost: when adding and updating data and files, they need to be synchronized over the server cluster and caches have to be cleared on all servers. Images need to be compressed and resized to various formats for zoom photos and thumbnails, SEO-filenames need to be checked and created and all the data needs to be synchronized over distributed file servers and backed-up servers.
The purpose of the limits is so that one user can not overload our systems, which would cause harm to other users.
API Requests | 300 requests per 24h |
---|---|
Viewing items | 1000 items per request |
Importing items | 100 items per request |
Updating items | 100 items per request |
Uploading images | 100 images per request (25 Megabyte per image) |
High API limits
In normal situations, the default limits should be sufficient. Only for webshops with a huge amount of products the limits could be a barrier.
At Settings > More options > EasyWebshop API the feature High API limits can be activated. This allows for extra API requests to be purchased.
API Push
API Push sends a HTTPS request with JSON or XML data. This data can be "caught" by a server and processed.
If you simply want to receive an email of your orders at an additional destination, use administrator accounts. You can also receive instant notifications for incoming orders.
At Settings > Modules > EasyWebshop API > API Push, enter the URL of your application and save. After saving, a Test button will appear which allows you to send an example request. To deactivate, simply leave the URLs empty and save.
Customer Push | Order Push |
---|---|
A HTTPS request is sent when a customer creates an account containing all the information about the customer, similar to the Customer API. | A HTTPS request is sent when a customer places an order in the webshop or when an order is placed using the POS. This request contains all the data of the order, the purchased products and information about the customer, similar to the Order API. |

Connections
Connections are small web applications that live on their own server and have their own URL. They can be installed by all webshops, thus their code can be re-used by all EasyWebshop users.
At Settings > Modules > EasyWebshop API > Connections Tokens, click the Add button to create a new API Connection Token. You will have to enter the URL of the connection.
Make sure you are creating an API Connection Token and not a regular API Token.
The types of connections are:
Delivery service, HTML widget, Invoice, Product feed, Payment Service Provider.
Connections typically have a number of files:
File | Description |

settings.xml | This is the configuration file of the connection.
|
easywebshop.php | This is the file that connects to the EasyWebshop API. Set your API Connection Token (not a regular API Token) in this file. |
index.php | This is the main file and first file to get accessed when the connection is used. In case of a delivery service, the GET fields with the customers' address are sent to this file. In the case of a PSP, the POST fields of the order are sent to this file. |
report.php | This file is used in case of PSP and Invoice and is typically requested in the background by the PSP to send updates about the payment status. This file then updates the order status in the webshop to Payment received. |
To make it easy to create new connections, we kept the examples below as simple and straightforward as possible.
Delivery service
Use the example below for creating connections to delivery or transport services.
The connection needs to be installed by the merchant and shipping methods need to be connected by selecting them.
- The customer is on the checkout page and selects a shipping method. Because your connection is connected to a shipping method, this triggers a popup with an iframe that points to your index.php file.
- The customers address data is sent as GET variables in the query string.
- In your connection, the customer can choose a shipping method or select a pick-up point from a map.
- Your connection sends the shipping method name, price, description and a logo to our confirmation URL (/dsconfirm).
- The data is added to the order and the customer gets a confirmation.

Invoice
Invoice works in the same way as Payment Service Provider, but focused on payment on invoice where customer data is needed. When the type is set to psp, only the necessary data that a PSP needs to process a payment is available. When the type is invoice, the customer data also becomes available.
Product feed
Used for retrieving product data, for example for use on comparison sites.

Payment Service Provider
This is the way to connect a Payment Service Provider (PSP) to EasyWebshop.
The connection needs to be installed by the merchant and payment methods need to be connected by selecting them.
After the customer has placed an order in the webshop, the page with the Pay now button appears. This button submits a HTML form.
- Your connection receives the POST data from this form, which includes the order code. With the API Connection Token you can safely retrieve the order data which is necessary for processing the payment.
- Connect to the API of the PSP and send the order data.
- If the payment is executed successfully, the payment service provider requests the report.php file which updates the status of the order in the webshop to Payment received.
- The customer is redirected to the payment ok or to the payment failed URL, depending on the success or failure of the payment.
- If multiple payment methods are set, the customer can choose another payment method after a failed payment.
- settings.xml
- easywebshop.php
- index.php

You can add the EasyWebshop logo to your website when the connection is ready.
Troubleshooting
We polished the EasyWebshop API to make it as easy as we possibly could. We also offer a high-quality help desk service with optional assistance by a developer for more technical questions. The purpose of the API is that you can connect to other platforms and applications. They may not have an easy to use API nor the level of support that we offer. Remember when contacting us, we can only provide help for EasyWebshop and not for external applications.
If you need help with programming languages, it's best to read their documentation pages. Most are very well documented. Possibly you can use AI to generate the code for your connection, but please do not expect that our support will fix bugs in your code.
During the Summer of web design we develop custom connections for our users. These connections are made by experienced developers. If you need a complex connection or feature, this is the way to go.
- I'm getting the error: "Invalid data integrity hash"
- Check that the API Connection Token (not a regular API Token) is set in the easywebshop.php file
- Check that the URL is correctly set
- Check that the connection is installed by a webshop
