Using Wizzapp Extension
Introduction
The Wizzapp extension facilitates real-time synchronization of inventory and order data between the Fynd Platform and Wizzapp, ensuring that your stocks are up-to-date and that all orders are tracked and fulfilled accurately. This makes the process of selling on marketplaces and websites seamless for sellers.
Once you have installed this extension, it will be available in the Extensions section on the Fynd Platform.
Pre-requisites to Use This Extension
- Your entire product catalogue should be available on the Fynd Platform. Proceed only if you have uploaded your catalogue. For a tutorial, watch How to Upload Product Catalogue.

Failed shipments are automatically retried at the backend every fifty minutes. This frequency of retry attempts can be configured at the backend.
If the event continues to fail after these retries, it remains in a failed state. Sellers also have the option to manually retry failed events every five minutes, with a limit of three additional attempts.
Comprehensive Logs: For every event retry, there is an associated log that sellers can access. The default view displays the most recent log entry. Seller can view any log by selecting the same from the dropdown.
Event Triggers

Sellers need to navigate to the configuration settings of the respective event through the Action column. There, they can input the URL and API key, and subsequently save the changes.
