# VTEX

> Connect a VTEX store to Pidgely with an application key to sync orders, customers and products and send order e-mails.

Source: https://docs.pidgely.com/guides/store-vtex/

VTEX stores connect with an **application key** you create in your VTEX admin.

1. In **Account settings → Roles**, create a role (for example "Pidgely") with these resources:
   * OMS: *View order* and *List Orders*
   * *Feed v3 and Hook Admin* (order notifications)
   * Master Data: *Read only documents* (customer e-mails and names)
   * Catalog: *Get Product and SKU* (or another catalog read resource)
2. In **Account settings → Application keys**, create a key with that role. Copy the **app key** and **app token**.
3. In Pidgely, open **Stores → VTEX → Connect** and enter your account name (the `aurora` in `aurora.myvtex.com`), the key and the token.

Pidgely configures the VTEX order hook to notify it of every status change. VTEX allows one hook per application key, so use a key dedicated to Pidgely. Customers and products have no notifications on VTEX: they are updated by the periodic sync.

Abandoned carts are not available for VTEX stores yet. To revoke access, delete the application key in VTEX, or click **Disconnect** in Pidgely.
