How to Connect Temu to API2Cart?
This guide explains how to connect a Temu store (Local Sellers) to API2Cart.
Firstly, to integrate your Temu store, you will need the following credentials:
- temu_app_key
- temu_app_secret
- temu_access_token
- temu_region
temu_region — can be US, EU or GLOBAL. The value depends on the region of your Temu Seller account. So, ensure that you select the region that corresponds to the location where your store is registered.
Manual Authorization and App Registration
- Log in to Temu Seller Center:
- US: https://seller.temu.com/open-platform/client-manage
- EU: https://seller-eu.temu.com/open-platform/client-manage
- Click Authorize a new app.
- If you already have a self-developed app, select it from the list. Otherwise, create a new self-developed app.
- After registering or selecting your app, you will receive:
- App Key → corresponds to temu_app_key
- App Secret → corresponds to temu_app_secret
- Please, complete the app authorization process by selecting the required permissions (scopes).
- After confirming the authorization, the system will display an Access Token. To sum it up, copy this value — it’s your temu_access_token.
Callback Authorization
Alternatively, you can authorize your app via the Callback flow to programmatically obtain an access token.
- Set a redirect URL in your app settings:
- US: https://partner-us.temu.com/app/app-mgmt/detail/edit?app_key={{your appkey}}
- EU: https://partner-eu.temu.com/app/app-mgmt/detail/edit?app_key={{your appkey}}
- Global: https://partner.temu.com/app/app-mgmt/detail/edit?app_key={{your appkey}}
- You currently need to edit the redirect_url field in the App to configure the callback address. Note that once configured, it will take effect immediately on the App Store.
- Authorize the app in Seller Center.
- After confirmation, you will be redirected to the configured URL with a code parameter:
https://seller.temu.com/?code=xxxxxx - Exchange the code for an access_token using Temu’s API method bg.open.accesstoken.create:
Use the returned accessToken as temu_access_token when adding your Temu store to API2Cart.
Sandbox Environment
In conclusion, Temu provides a sandbox environment for testing integrations without affecting real stores or orders. It is highly recommended to test your integration in sandbox before switching to production.
