# Cin7

Cin7 is a cloud-based inventory management and point-of-sale platform that helps product businesses manage stock, orders, suppliers, and sales across multiple channels. It combines inventory control, order management, and financial tracking in one place. Connecting Cin7 to Coupler.io lets you pull that data into your reporting and analytics tools automatically.

**Why connect Cin7 to Coupler.io?**

* Sync sales, purchases, inventory, and customer data into Google Sheets, BigQuery, Excel, or Looker Studio without manual exports
* Combine Cin7 entities — for example, join Sales with Products to analyze revenue by SKU, or Append purchase records across multiple accounts
* Send Cin7 data to AI destinations like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini for demand forecasting, supplier analysis, or sales commentary
* Keep dashboards and reports up to date on a schedule without touching Cin7

## Prerequisites

Before connecting, make sure you have:

* A Cin7 account with API access enabled (available on most paid plans)
* Your Cin7 **API Username** and **API Key** — find these in Cin7 under **Settings > Integrations > API**
* Sufficient permissions to access the entities you want to export (e.g., sales, purchases, inventory)

## Quick start

{% hint style="success" %}
If you want a broad view of your inventory and sales performance, start by adding the **Sales**, **Products**, and **Product availabilities** entities in a single data flow. Use the Join transformation to combine them by product ID.

## How to connect

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Create a new data flow in Coupler.io.** Log in to your Coupler.io account, go to **Data flows**, and click **Add data flow**. Search for **Cin7** and select it as your source.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Enter your Cin7 API credentials.** In the source settings, paste your **API Username** and **API Key**. You can find these in Cin7 under **Settings > Integrations > API**. Click **Save**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Select the entity you want to import.** Choose from the list of available entities — such as Sales, Products, Customers, or Purchase lists. Each entity is a separate source block; add more source blocks to the same data flow if you need multiple entities.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Choose your destination.** Select where you want your data to land — Google Sheets, BigQuery, Excel, Looker Studio, or an AI destination like ChatGPT or Claude. Configure the destination settings.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Run your data flow.** Click **Run** to execute a manual sync and verify the data looks correct before setting up a schedule.
