equinux iSale 5.9.7 - Manual (Page 17)

Getting Started
Before you can go ahead and create your first auc-
tion, iSale needs to know which eBay account to
use. You may also want to set some defaults for
new auctions.
Authorize iSale
Before you can start using iSale, you have to authorize the soft-
ware to use an eBay account when submitting auctions and fetch-
ing your running auctions’ status.
If you don’t have an active eBay account yet, you will need to reg-
ister on eBay.
To create a new eBay account, please do the following:
‣ Visit
http://www.ebay.com (or some other local eBay website)
‣ Follow the instructions for creating a new account
Once you have a valid eBay account, you can open iSale for
authorization.
To authorize iSale:
‣ Click the Account button (“Authorize“) at the bottom right of
the main window
or
‣ Choose iSale 5 > Preferences… > Accounts and click the “+”
symbol
A browser window will open, displaying the standard eBay login
dialog.
‣ Enter a valid eBay username and password
‣ Click “Sign In“
‣ Click “Agree and Continue“
eBay will now issue an Authentication Token allowing iSale to use
this account for listing items.
