# Connect the BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce to your BizPrint account

Section: Set up

> Enter your application's keys in the BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce, save them, and test the connection from the BizPrint dashboard.

This page shows you how to connect the [BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-plugin-for-woocommerce) to your BizPrint account, so your store can send orders to your [printers](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#printer). It is for WooCommerce store owners and the people who set up printing for them, and it works the same whether your printers are connected to the [BizPrint desktop app](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-desktop-app) or the [BizPrint Android app](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-android-app).

In WordPress, the plugin’s settings appear as **Print Manager** under the **WooCommerce** menu.

## Before you start

- [Install the BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce](https://docs.getbizprint.com/set-up/install-woocommerce-plugin/).
- [Create a BizPrint application for your WooCommerce store](https://docs.getbizprint.com/set-up/create-woocommerce-application/) in the [BizPrint dashboard](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-dashboard). The [application](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#application) has the [keys](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#public-key-and-secret-key) that you enter in WordPress on this page.
- Sign in to WordPress as an administrator, or with a user role that has access to **Print Manager**.

> **Caution**
>
> The **Secret Key** works like a password. It is one of the application’s two keys. Never email it, post it in a chat, or share it with anyone who does not need it. Copy it straight from the dashboard into WordPress.

## Enter your application’s keys in WordPress

Keep two browser tabs open: one with the BizPrint dashboard and one with WordPress.

1. Sign in to the BizPrint dashboard.
2. Click **Applications** in the menu.
3. Click your store’s application in the **My Applications** list. On a phone, tap the tick or cross icon in its row instead, because tapping elsewhere in the row does not open it. The application page shows its **Public Key** and **Secret Key**, each with a copy button.
4. Go to **WooCommerce** > **Print Manager** in WordPress, in the other tab.
5. Open the **Application** tab. The keys go in the **Application API Keys** section.
6. Click the copy button next to the **Public Key** in the dashboard.
7. Paste it into the **Public Key** field in WordPress.
8. Click the copy button next to the **Secret Key** in the dashboard.
9. Paste it into the **Secret Key** field in WordPress.
10. Select **REST API** next to **API Version**, if it is not already selected. It is the recommended choice.
11. Click **Save Changes**.

After you save, **API Version** shows **REST API** as plain text, and the “You’re almost there” setup notice no longer appears in WordPress.

If **API Version** shows **Legacy API** with a **Migrate to REST API** button, your store uses the older connection. See [Move the BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce from the Legacy API to the REST API](https://docs.getbizprint.com/developers/legacy-api-migration/).

## Connect and test the webhook

The [webhook](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#webhook) lets BizPrint send updates about your [print jobs](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#print-job) back to your store. Testing it is also a quick way to confirm that the keys you saved in WordPress match your application. Do these steps after you have saved the keys.

1. Click inside the **Webhook Url** field on the **Application** tab in WordPress. The plugin copies your store’s webhook address and shows “Copied”.
2. Go back to your application’s page in the BizPrint dashboard.
3. Click in the **Webhook URL** field.
4. Delete anything that is already in it.
5. Paste the address you copied.
6. Click **Update** next to the field.
7. Click **Perform test connection**, under **Webhook Info**.

If the connection works, the dashboard shows **Successfully connected with webhook server**.

If it shows “Error connection to webhook server.”, check that you pasted the whole address from the **Webhook Url** field and that you clicked **Save Changes** in WordPress after you entered the keys. Then see [BizPrint webhook test connection fails](https://docs.getbizprint.com/troubleshooting/webhook-connection/).

## Check that your printers are visible

When the keys are saved, the plugin can see the printers of every [station](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#station) in your account.

1. Open the **Printers** tab in **Print Manager**.
2. Click **Add new**.
3. Look at the **Printers** box. Each printer is listed as the station name, the printer name, and its status in brackets.

If the **Printers** box is empty, check that your station is connected and shows its printers in the dashboard, and that you copied both keys from the right application. See [A printer does not appear in BizPrint](https://docs.getbizprint.com/troubleshooting/printer-not-showing/).

You are now ready to create a [printer location](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#printer-location), which tells the plugin which printers and which [template](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#template) to use. See [Create a printer location in the BizPrint plugin for WooCommerce](https://docs.getbizprint.com/set-up/create-printer-location/).
