Etsy connection

Connect your Etsy shop, review your listings, and send them

Connect your shop, prepare listing drafts, and follow the sending result in one workspace. You decide which permissions to grant and which listings to send.

Requested permissions

What are the four requested permissions for?

Makaytron requests the permissions needed to prepare and send listings. Renewing a connection does not add new permissions automatically.

Read listings

Reads listings in the connected shop for preparation, matching, and status checks.

Permission scope

It does not grant permission to change listing content.

Write listing drafts

Allows a draft to be created on Etsy, or permitted listing details to be updated, for a listing you approve.

Permission scope

Makaytron does not delete entire Etsy listings.

Read shop information

Checks the shop you connected and the shop settings needed to prepare listings.

Permission scope

It does not take over general management of your shop account.

Manage shop sections

Allows updates to shop descriptions, messages, and sections. Creating or updating sections used to organize listings requires it.

Permission scope

This permission alone does not publish an Etsy listing.

Connection management

Connecting, reconnecting, and disconnecting your shop

Check the connection status in your account. Listing submission stops if the required permissions cannot be verified.

When you disconnect

Disconnecting a shop immediately stops access and starts removing its connection details.Removing those details may take time. Your saved drafts and activity history are kept.
  1. 01

    You start the connection

    Start the connection from Shops. Review permissions on Etsy’s own screen. Do not enter your Etsy password in Makaytron’s contact form.

  2. 02

    You review permissions on Etsy

    Review and approve the four requested permissions on Etsy. Makaytron checks shop details and granted permissions when you return.

  3. 03

    You reconnect when needed

    Listing submission stops if shop access cannot be renewed; renewal credentials are missing, invalid, or expired; authorization is revoked; or required permissions cannot be verified. You are then asked to reconnect.

  4. 04

    You disconnect from your account

    Disconnecting immediately revokes shop access. Your drafts and operation history in Makaytron are retained.

Troubleshooting

When a connection or submission fails

Depending on the cause, you may need to wait, reconnect your shop, or retry the operation.

Your shop needs to be reconnected

When Etsy denies access, at most one connection renewal and one retry are attempted. If access is still denied, you are asked to reconnect.

Waiting for Etsy’s request limit

Makaytron follows the waiting period and usage limits specified by Etsy. Renewing the connection does not remove those limits.

Temporary network or service error

Retries are limited. A submission with an uncertain result is not immediately repeated; you can check its status in the queue.

After a temporary service error, an action can be retried up to three times, with a wait between attempts.Automatic retries require the publishing service to be enabled. Retrying cannot resolve every error.
BetaWhen Etsy’s usage limit is reached, retry timing is adjusted to respect that limit.You may still need to wait during heavy use. This feature does not remove Etsy’s usage limits.

Etsy FAQ

What to know before connecting

Is Makaytron affiliated with Etsy?

Makaytron is an independent product and does not claim endorsement or sponsorship by Etsy.

Does connecting make listings go live automatically?

No. Sending to Etsy follows the scope set with user approval; connecting alone does not publish a listing. Preparation and results remain visible in the queue. If scheduled sending is available in your account, you choose its timing and scope separately; availability depends on shop permissions and the publishing service.

Can I send listings as soon as I approve permissions on Etsy?

The required permissions must first be verified. If permission details are missing or the required access cannot be confirmed, listing submission does not start.

Does disconnecting remove my local drafts?

No. Shop access is revoked and cleanup of saved connection credentials is attempted. Your drafts and operation history in Makaytron are retained.

Can Makaytron delete an entire Etsy listing?

No. Makaytron does not delete an entire Etsy listing. Editing or deleting a listing’s images, files, or videos is subject to separate permissions and conditions.

Does connecting or reconnecting use credits?

No. Connection operations do not use credits. You see the current cost before starting listing preparation or publishing operations that require credits.
