Follow these steps to connect eBay to your CData Connect Cloud account:

1. Open the Connections page of the CData Connect Cloud dashboard.

2. Click + Add Connection in the upper-right corner.

3. Type eBay into the search field, then click the data source name.

4. On the Basic Settings tab of the new connection, enter a connection name or keep the default name.

5. If you have not already, join the eBay Developers Program. On the eBay Developers Program dashboard, navigate to My Account > Application Access Keys.

   1. Copy down the values for App ID, DevID, and Cert ID.

   2. Click Get a User Token Here to generate an access token. Set the Redirect URI to https://oauth.cdata.com/oauth/ and copy down your token.

6. Enter the following information:

   • Ru Name—(optional) the Redirect URL name used for validation. This property is only needed if you are using the provider to allow other users to access their own data.

   • Auth Scheme—the scheme to use for authentication. Options are OAuth and AuthNAuth.

   • Dev ID—the DevID you obtained from the Application Access Keys page.

   • OAuth Client Id—the App ID you obtained from the Application Access Keys page.

   • OAuth Client Secret—the Cert ID you obtained from the Application Access Keys page.

   • OAuth Access Token—the access token you generated above.

   • Site ID—the Id of the eBay site that you want to connect to. The default value of 0 is for eBay U.S.

   • Use Sandbox—set to True only if you are using a sandbox account. Otherwise, leave as False.

7. At the top of the CData Connect Cloud Add eBay Connection page, click Save & Test.

   • If the connection test succeeds, a message indicates that your connection has been created.

   • If the connection test fails, ensure that you entered your login information correctly with no stray spaces or other characters. Then, try again.
