Macros

Linnworks.net Macros - A brief guide

General

This document is intended for macro developers. Please note that there is a shift in the way thatmacros are treated in Linnworks.net. Macros are added to a developer’s account and areinstalled on a user’s account as an application.Without the desktop environment, new macros are run via our servers and as such, there will bea cost associated with the runtime they use. In the current state of the closed beta, this is not inplace.With the system being in closed beta, there is a continuous process of updates and refinements.Updates on macros can be found ##Billing Developers will be billed for macro run time. This is not currently implemented, but will be inplace in the near future. As it will be developer accounts that will be charged for macro run time,it is suggested that developers consider an application payment plan when the application iscreated. ##Triggers Currently, macros can be fired by the rules engine on orders, as an action or via a schedule orvia the API as part of of a wider part of customisation.
