What the Katana–Stylux integration does

Stylux is a personalization, product-decoration, fulfillment, and shipment-tracking platform for ecommerce and B2B brands. It handles the online buying flow, post-purchase decoration, fulfillment services, and tracking.

By connecting Katana with Stylux, you can:

  • Map Stylux warehouses to Katana locations: Each Stylux warehouse is linked to its own dedicated Katana location, and only mapped warehouses sync.

  • Import products by SKU: Stylux products match existing Katana products by SKU, unknown SKUs create new products, and SKU aliases connect SKUs that don't match.

  • See Stylux stock levels in Katana: Stylux stock numbers appear as read-only external inventory at each warehouse's mapped Katana location.

Before you start

  • An active Stylux account.

  • Your Stylux API Key and API Secret, which you get from Stylux. If Stylux gave you staging credentials, you'll also tick the Staging Environment box.

  • A Katana account with permission to manage integrations.

Connect Stylux to Katana

  1. In Katana, open the Integrations page and find the Stylux tile.

  4. Once Stylux has approved the connection, the configuration screen opens on the Location tab. The integration status shows Connected with Sync inactive, and an Activate sync button appears in the header. Map each Stylux warehouse to a Katana location. Use Add to Katana to create a dedicated location automatically.

How your daily workflow looks

  1. Stylux holds and manages your physical stock in its warehouses.

  2. Products from Stylux import into Katana by SKU. New SKUs create products as they appear.

  3. Stylux stock levels show in Katana as read-only external inventory at each mapped location.

  4. Katana compares its in-stock quantities against Stylux on hand, on a schedule or on demand, and creates stock adjustments for any differences.

  5. You plan production and purchasing in Katana using up-to-date stock figures.
