Complete store connection actions

Once your Amazon store is connected to AfterShip Tracking, there is one action that we recommend setting up.


Add relevant carriers accounts: Adding carriers to your AfterShip Tracking account helps improve carrier auto-detection and ensures tracking updates are retrieved correctly. Some carriers can be added and used immediately, while others require you to add and connect a carrier account before tracking updates can be received.

Once connection is established and relevant carriers are added, AfterShip Tracking will automatically import orders from Amazon every 30 minutes.

Configuring these settings helps ensure that AfterShip Tracking imports the shipments you want without requiring manual synchronization.
