Introduction to Walmart OAuth Migration
Walmart has improved their security protocols to OAuth process to be able to access their APIs. Their process now uses OAuth (Open Authorization) 2.0, allowing Descartes ShipRush to connect to Walmart without sharing credentials. The Descartes ShipRush application has been modified to accommodate the new Walmart authorization process and connection. Important note: If you have multiple Walmart webstores you need to follow this process for all your webstores separately.
