    Note: It's better to set the permission as Read/Write. It will allow you to edit or revoke the keys in the future.
  9. Click the Generate API key button. The Consumer key and Consumer secret of your WooCommerce account are now right in front of you:

  10. Copy them and paste it in the relevant fields of the Connect to WooCommerce window. 
  11. Now, specify your WordPress site URL in the Host field by removing the https:// from the site URL. For instance, if your site URL is http://nayeproducts.com/, then just specify nayeproducts.com:

  12. Select Yes or No for the Strict SSL field as per the SSL and other security plugins installed in your WordPress site. This is an optional field.
  13. Click the Link account button. Your WooCommerce account is now successfully connected with Quickwork.

Note: The WooCommerce plugin is a paid feature. Choose your plan according to your business needs.
