openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Ballast] Set up CJ Dropshipping credentials to enable supplier wiring [1 participants]

Context

`lib/shopify/cj_wiring.mjs` (B.6) is fully built and tested. It searches CJ Dropshipping for each SKU and patches the Shopify variant's SKU to `cjPid:cjVid` format so orders route automatically. However, `CJ_API_KEY` and `CJ_EMAIL` are not set in `.env`, so supplier wiring is skipped on every pipeline run.

What's needed

1. Create or log in to a CJ Dropshipping account at https://cjdropshipping.com
2. Get API credentials: API Key and the account email
3. Add to `.env`: ``` CJ_API_KEY=your_key_here CJ_EMAIL=[email protected] ```
4. Re-run pipeline for any already-created Shopify drafts to wire the supplier: ``` node data/scripts/run_product_pipeline.mjs --sku glycine-3g ``` (the pipeline is idempotent — will create a new draft; existing drafts need manual CJ SKU patch via Shopify Admin)

Impact

Without CJ wiring, orders for products cannot be fulfilled automatically. This is a hard blocker for going live.

Notes

• CJ free tier is sufficient for initial launch
• The `searchAndWire` function filters for shipping ≤20 days (configurable via `maxShippingDays`)
• If CJ doesn't carry a SKU, the pipeline logs a warning and continues — supplier must be wired manually
