5. Give your key a description.
6. Set the duration of the key's validity to indefinite or 90 days (\~3 months).
7. Click **Generate key**.
8. Copy/note the API key and store it somewhere safe. You will need it in the next step.
   {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Create your Odoo connection in Channable

1. In Channable, open the project where you want to import your product data.
2. Go to **Setup** and click **+ Choose import method**.
3. For **Data source**, select **Odoo**.
4. Click **Add a new connection**.
5. Fill in the required information:
   1. For **Name**, give your connection a clear name (e.g. `Odoo US`).
   2. For **Odoo API Key**, paste/enter the key you generated in Odoo in the previous step.
   3. For **Odoo URL**, enter your Odoo URL (e.g. `https://demo-channable.odoo.com/`)
   4. For **Odoo Database Name**, enter the name of the database that contains your products (e.g. `demo-channable`)
6. Click **Connect with Odoo**.

{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure the database you connect contains active product data and can be accessed with your API key.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Run your import

1. After connecting, give your import a clear name.
2. Review the available import settings.
3. Click **Run import**.

Once Channable reads your product data, you will be redirected to the **Import Mapping** page.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Import mapping

This page shows the fields retrieved from your Odoo database, such as `title`, `description`, and `price`.

Before you continue:

* Compare and adjust mapping.
  * Review your **Imported data fields** against the matched **Project fields**.
  * If a field is matched incorrectly, click it and select a different field.
* Check and correct field types.
  * If a field has the wrong type, click **Edit**, select the correct type, and click **Save & Import**.

* Exclude fields if needed.
  * To skip a field, select it in the **Select** column and exclude it from the import.

When you're done, click **Save & Import** to start importing your product data.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Review your imported items

After your product data has finished importing:

* Go to **Overview** to view your imported products.
* Click an item to see its details.

Your Odoo import is now ready to use in Feeds, Marketplaces, Shopping Ads, and more.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://helpcenter.channable.com/import-data/import-how-to/import-your-product-data/import-via-a-webshop/odoo.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
