The update method refers to the way StreetPricer sends or updates the reprices after it has applied your rules.
You access the configuration page at Settings > AutoPrice
If you have more than one store, each store can have its own update method.
The default is blank, click Edit to configure for the first time.
There are 4 main update methods StreetPricer uses:
- Marketplace - eBay (via API)
This updates your eBay store directly with the price changes via API
- eCommerce Platform (via API)
This updates your eCommerce platform's eBay price field directly via API. We currently handle BigCommerce, Magento, Neto and Shopify
- File Exchange (with CSV)
This sends you a CSV with the new prices via FTP or attached to an email
- Email (text)
This is sent via a text email. Note that for email, no prices are actually changed or updated.
eBay (via API)
Simply check the box and you're good to go. No other configuration is needed. StreetPricer updates the prices via API as long as your eBay token provided is still valid.

File exchange CSV
File exchange is done with CSVs, and can be imported to any of your applications.
The default fields in the CSV are SKU and Price.
You may also add 3 additional fields by checking the respective boxes - Title, Price without Shipping and Ship Amount.
All fields may be renamed to match what your application will use.
CSVs can be sent via FTP or email attached.
FTP
Please provide the details of your FTP and the path where we will drop off the CSV. Test the FTP connection.
Email Attach
Provide the email address for us to send the CSV to.
This method just sends you an email (in text) of the recommended price changes. The lowest competitor and the price rule is shown as to why it is repriced.
