Epox Connector for WooCommerce
This plugin is the store-side half of the Epox integration. Install it on your WooCommerce store and Epox can publish generated images and video straight into your products, reusing the WooCommerce API key you have already issued — there is nothing extra to configure.
It exists because the generic WooCommerce product endpoint cannot express what the integration needs. Without this plugin, publishing one image takes three round trips (upload, attach, verify) and WooCommerce re-downloads the file itself, which fails on some hosting stacks and can leave duplicates behind on a retry. With it, the whole operation happens once, on your server, in a single transaction.
What it adds:
- One call per sync. Download, media-library registration, gallery placement and metadata all happen server-side in one request.
- Safe retries. Every media item carries an idempotency key. If Epox retries a sync, the plugin returns the attachment it already created instead of importing a second copy.
- All-or-nothing. If any part of a sync fails, attachments created during that request are removed. A failed sync leaves no orphans in your media library.
- Video support. Product video can be imported and linked to your gallery plugin’s
metadata, which the standard WooCommerce product API has no way to express. The video file
itself can be imported into your media library — not just referenced by URL — verified
against “WooCommerce Gallery Slider” (
gallery-slider-for-woocommerce, formerly WooGallery). - Variation images. One generated image can be assigned across several variations without importing it more than once.
