Perplexity

Check Live Ecwid Data in Chat

Ask your agent to find specific orders or customers. The `search_orders` tool pulls up order history by status or buyer details, while `search_customers` can find anyone in your Ecwid database. It's faster than logging into the admin panel. You can also get the full details for a single item using `get_product` or an entire order with `get_order`. This isn't just a summary—it pulls pricing, variations, and even SEO info straight into your conversation.

Run Inventory Audits with Your Agent

This MCP Server gives your agent the ability to directly modify stock levels. Use the `update_inventory` tool to change the quantity of any product by its ID. It's perfect for quick corrections or syncing with external stock counts. Combine it with `search_products` to first find items with low stock. Then, have your agent loop through them and use `update_inventory` to restock. This turns a manual chore into a simple prompt.

Manage Your Store from Claude Desktop

Pull your entire store configuration in a second. The `get_profile` tool fetches your Ecwid store settings, while `list_categories` and `list_coupons` give you a direct view of your product structure and active discounts. For more custom setups, `get_app_storage` lets your agent access data stored by other Ecwid apps. This is how you connect disparate parts of your e-commerce stack without writing a single line of integration code.
