Odoo

Import product data from your Odoo store into Channable.

In this article, you'll learn how to import product data from Odoo into Channable.

Channable works with Odoo version 19 and later. You can check your version in your Odoo account settings.

Before you start

You'll need

• A Channable account with a project
• An active Odoo subscription
• An active Odoo database with products
• The Odoo product module enabled

I’m not sure if I have the Odoo product module enabled

In your Odoo account, go to Settings. If you see the option Inventory, the product module is enabled.

If you don’t see it, contact Odoo’s Support team.

Good to know

• Channable connects to Odoo through the external JSON2 API.
• Channable only works with Odoo version 19 or later.
• Order connections are not available for Odoo yet
• Domain filtering is not available for Odoo yet

You cannot currently exclude records such as disabled products, active=false products, or services during setup.
