WooCommerce

Connect a WooCommerce store via the HYGO Shop companion plugin (a small WordPress plugin) plus the WooCommerce REST API. Works on self-hosted WordPress and on WooCommerce.com — no theme changes required.

What gets imported​

  • Products (titles, descriptions, variants, images, prices, stock).
  • Customers (for cart recovery + reorder reminders).
  • Orders (for reorder cadence + lifetime value).

What gets written back​

Only what you approve in HYGO Shop's review queue:

  • Updated product titles + descriptions.
  • New product images.
  • Stock levels (only if Reorder workflows are on).

Setup​

  1. WordPress admin → Plugins → Add New → search HYGO Shop → install + activate.
  2. Click Connect HYGO Shop in the plugin's settings panel.
  3. Sign in to your HYGO Shop account.
  4. Approve the connection.

Initial sync runs in the background. You can keep using your store while it works.

Permissions​

The companion plugin requests read_write on Products, Orders, Customers. It does not request payment-method scope or capture any card data. Underlying communication with WooCommerce uses the REST API with a short-lived API key issued during connect.

Disconnect​

WordPress admin → Plugins → HYGO Shop → Deactivate + Delete. HYGO Shop receives the disconnect signal, marks tenant data for deletion, and purges within 30 days.

See Data handling for retention specifics.
