# How to connect

> How to connect the Lazada data source to Adriel: authorize a Lazada seller account, select the shop, and import orders and products.

Lazada is a Southeast Asian e-commerce marketplace operating across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam. Connecting it retrieves orders and products from the Lazada Open Platform API, so sales performance for a shop appears in Adriel dashboards alongside ad-platform spend.

## Before you connect

The following are required:

* A Lazada seller account with API access enabled on the Lazada Open Platform.
* The specific shop to authorize, if the seller account manages more than one shop. Each connection maps to a single shop in a single country.

## Connect Lazada

<Steps>
  <Step title="Select the data source">
    On the **Data Sources** page, search for **Lazada** and select it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize through Lazada Open Platform">
    Click **Connect** to open Lazada's authorization screen. The flow forces a fresh login, so the shop being connected is chosen explicitly.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sign in and approve">
    Sign in with the Lazada seller account and approve the requested permissions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    After Lazada redirects back, click **Save** to start the initial import of products and recent orders. The first sync runs in the background.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What gets imported

The connector imports products and orders for the authorized shop. Order data covers order amount, payment amount, discount, tax, shipping fee, buyer count, and status; product data covers names, SKUs, prices, status, and images. Lazada does not provide pre-aggregated sales analytics, so revenue metrics are reconstructed from raw orders. Currency follows the shop's country code (SGD, MYR, THB, IDR, PHP, or VND).

For the complete list of metrics and breakdowns, see the [Lazada data reference](/data-sources/g-n/lazada/data-reference).

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Revenue appears in USD instead of the local currency">
    Currency is derived from the seller account's country code. If the country is not one of the supported Southeast Asian markets (Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam), revenue falls back to USD. Confirm the country is set correctly in the Lazada Open Platform.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Authentication errors appear after a period of inactivity">
    The access token can expire over time. Reauthorize the connection through the Lazada Open Platform flow to restore the data source.
  </Accordion>
