# Kaufland
Follow the steps below to connect your Kaufland seller account to Linkolis and automatically import your orders.
***
### Prerequisites
Before you start, make sure you have:
* An active **Kaufland Seller account**
* Access to the **Kaufland Seller Portal** ([sellerportal.kaufland.de](https://sellerportal.kaufland.de))
* Your **Client ID** and **Client Secret** generated from the Kaufland API settings
***
### Step 1 — Generate your API credentials on Kaufland
You need to create API credentials from your Kaufland Seller Portal before connecting to Linkolis.
1. Log in to your [Kaufland Seller Portal](https://sellerportal.kaufland.de)
2. Go to **Settings → API**
3. Click **Create new API key**
4. Copy your **Client ID** and **Client Secret** — you will need them in the next steps
> **Important:** Store your Client Secret securely. Kaufland will only display it once at creation time. If you lose it, you will need to generate a new one.
***
### Step 2 — Open the Apps section in Linkolis
From the left sidebar, click **Apps**. You will land on the **My Applications** page.
***
### Step 3 — Open the application catalogue
Click the **+** button in the top-right corner to open the **All Applications** catalogue.
***
### Step 4 — Install the Kaufland app
Find **Kaufland** in the catalogue and click **Install**. A configuration panel will slide open on the right side of the screen.
***
### Step 5 — Fill in the installation form
| Field | Description |
| -------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Application name** | A display label for this integration. Defaults to "Kaufland". |
| **Client ID** | The Client ID generated from your Kaufland Seller Portal API settings. |
| **Client Secret** | The Client Secret generated alongside your Client ID. |
| **Synchronization stock update** | When checked, Linkolis will automatically push stock level updates to your Kaufland listings. |
Once all fields are filled in, click **Confirm**.
***
### Step 6 — Verify the connection
The Kaufland app will appear in your **My Applications** list. Click the wrench icon to open the configuration panel. A blue **"Module installed correctly"** banner at the top confirms the integration is active.
***
### What happens next?
Once connected, Linkolis will automatically:
* **Import new orders** from your Kaufland store
* **Update stock levels** on Kaufland in real time (if synchronization stock update is enabled)
You can edit or delete the integration at any time from the **My Applications** page.
***
### Troubleshooting
**"Module installed correctly" banner does not appear** Double-check that your Client ID and Client Secret are correct and have not expired. Regenerate them from the Kaufland Seller Portal if needed, then update the credentials via the wrench icon.
**Orders are not being imported** Make sure the API key has the necessary permissions in the Kaufland Seller Portal (order read access). If permissions are missing, regenerate the key with the correct scope.
**Stock is not updating on Kaufland** Verify that the **Synchronization stock update** checkbox is enabled in the configuration panel. Stock sync is opt-in and disabled by default.
