How to Connect OpenCart to Webgility Desktop
To connect Webgility with Opencart, you will need to install the Webgility Extension. This will require you to have your sales channel FTP information.

2. At the bottom center under downloads click on Extensions (Extension v356).On the next screen Under Download Webgility Extension Select the dropdown Under Select Sales Channel Type select OpenCart and then click Webgility Extension to download.
3. The Webgility Extension needs to be uploaded to the root directory of your OpenCart sales channel via the FTP Client application. If needed, consult your web developer on how to do this. Once this step is complete, proceed to connect the sales channel to Webgility.
4. Launch Webgility and navigate to Connections> Sales Channels > Add New Sales Channel. If this is the first sales channel you are adding, after installation of the Webgility Desktop app, you will be directed to the sales channel connection window.
5. For Select Sales Channel choose OpenCart, then Give your Sales Channel a name, and Enter the Sales Channel web address. An example sales channel web address is: http://www.yourwebsitename.com/upload/webgility/opencart.php. Click Continue.
6. Now, enter the store's admin credentials and click Connect to OpenCart.
