PrestaShop connection guide

This guide contains all permissions and requirements for connecting your PrestaShop data to Supermetrics.


You can connect to data sources from the Data sources page on the Supermetrics Hub. On the Hub, you can also share an authentication link to connect to a data source you don't have direct access to.


After you connect to the data source on the Hub, you can use the data source connection in all available destinations.

  2. Click Settings from the left-hand side navigation bar.

Steo 3: Obtain the Webservice URL

To obtain your webservice URL, navigate to the front page of your Prestashop by clicking View my store in the upper right corner of the Prestashop back office.


If Prestashop is installed at the root of your server (the most common case), the webservice URL is the part of the URL before the first trailing slash /, typically it looks like this:

https://example.com


In case your Prestashop is installed in a subfolder of your server, the URL looks like this: https://example.com/prestashop


In both cases, make sure your webservice URL does not have a trailing slash / at the end.
