BjornLunden - Connector Settings
These settings control the behavior of the Bjorn Lunden connector, including authentication, data synchronization, and custom field mappings. Correct configuration is essential for successful data exchange between Bjorn Lunden and the App4Sales platform.
Data Source Configuration
Connector settings are configured within the App4Sales portal on the connector settings page. They are applied at runtime during synchronization jobs like fetching customers or items, and when sending orders.
Setting | Description | Values / Defaults | Dependencies / Effects |
User key (publickey) | The public user key for authenticating with the Bjorn Lunden API. | String. No default value. | This key is required for all API communication. An invalid key will cause all synchronization jobs to fail. |
Download images from ERP | If enabled, the connector will download item images from the ERP during item synchronization. | Boolean (true/false). Defaults to false. | Enabling this may increase synchronization time. The 'Max count of parallel requests for item pictures upload' setting can be used to control the performance impact. |
Max count of parallel requests for item pictures upload | Controls how many item images are downloaded from the ERP simultaneously. | Integer. No default value. | This setting is only effective if 'Download images from ERP' is enabled. A higher value can speed up image downloads but increases the load on the ERP and the App4Sales server. |
Synchronize only customers from category (comma separated) | Filters customers based on their category. Only customers belonging to one of the specified categories will be synchronized. | Comma-separated string of category names. No default value. | If left empty, customers from all categories will be synchronized. This can be used to limit the scope of the customer data synchronized into App4Sales. |
Mapping for custom customer fields (JSON format) | Defines a mapping for custom fields from the Bjorn Lunden ERP to App4Sales customer fields. | A JSON string defining the mapping. See example in the code for the format. | This allows for extending the standard customer data with custom fields from the ERP. An invalid JSON format will cause errors during customer synchronization. The example format is: |
Authentication
Authentication with the Bjorn Lunden API is handled via a public user key. The access token and related properties are managed internally by the connector and are not exposed as configurable settings.
Catalog
The connector allows for downloading item images from the ERP. The performance of this process can be tuned using the setting for the maximum number of parallel requests. Customers can also be filtered by category to control which customers are synchronized.
Order Processing
There are no specific settings for order processing in this connector.
