Connect Todocolección to RUIT

In this tutorial you connect your Todocolección account to RUIT. Todocolección connects with two pieces of information, an API Key and your User ID, and it has a quirk that no other marketplace shares: you do not generate them yourself. You ask Todocolección for them through its contact form, they reach you by email and you paste them into RUIT. Your part takes five minutes; the wait depends on Todocolección.

You need a seller account on Todocolección and a verified phone, because without it the connection wizard does not open.

1. Ask Todocolección for the API key and user ID

Sign in to your Todocolección account and open its business information form. The website only exists in Spanish, so its labels are given here as they appear, with their meaning. Fill in your name and email, choose Otros motivos (other reasons) under Asunto (subject) and, in Motivo de la consulta (reason for your query), ask for your account’s API key and user ID. For example: “Good morning, I would like to request the API key and the user ID of my account so that I can connect it to external management tools. Thank you.” Press Enviar consulta (send query) and note down the query number they give you.

2. Wait for Todocolección’s reply

Todocolección replies by email, and the two pieces of information come in that reply. In the meantime you can see how your query is going on its contact page: type the number under Consulta frecuente (acceso directo) (frequent query, direct access) and press Continuar (continue).

3. Paste the two details into RUIT

Go to Settings → Accounts, press Connect Account and pick Todocolección. Paste the key into API Key and your identifier into User ID, and press Connect. There is no address to type: the store is not yours, it is a marketplace.

RUIT tests the credentials by asking Todocolección for a product from your account. If they are rejected, it tells you right there instead of leaving the account half set up.

What you have achieved

Your account appears under Connected Accounts with its Todocolección card, which carries your user ID. The credentials do not expire, so the card does not have the Reconnect button that Wallapop and Vinted do: the connection lasts as long as Todocolección keeps the key valid.

Next step: importing from a marketplace to bring in the lots you already have on Todocolección, or publishing your first listing.

If something is off

• “Failed to verify credentials. Please check your API keys and store URL.” Todocolección has rejected the details. The message mentions a store URL that does not exist here; what you need to check is the key, copied in full and with no spaces, and the ID.
• You cannot find your user ID in the email. It is the same one that appears in the address of your public profile, todocoleccion.net/usuario/<your-id>.
• Later on, RUIT says “We need to validate your session again. Please link the account again.” Todocolección has stopped accepting the key. Ask it for a new one and repeat step 3.
