Olist Tiny is one of Brazil’s most widely used ERP systems for small and medium businesses, covering sales, finance, inventory, and invoicing. This connector uses the Olist Tiny API v3 to extract your orders, products, contacts, invoices (NF-e), accounts payable and receivable, sellers, brands, payment methods, and warehouses.

Configuring Olist as a Source

In the Sources tab, click on the “Add source” button located on the top right of your screen. Then, select the Olist option from the list of connectors. Click Next and you’ll be prompted to add your access.

1. Add account access

Olist Tiny API v3 uses OAuth 2.0. Unlike most connectors, Olist applications are private to each account, so you create your own application inside your Olist Tiny account and authorize Nekt with its keys.
1

Open the Applications screen

In the Olist ERP (erp.olist.com), go to Configurações → Aplicativos API (erp.olist.com/aplicativos_api) and click + novo aplicativo. Each account can have up to 5 applications.
2

Name it and set the redirect URL

Enter a Name (for example, Nekt). In URL de Redirecionamento, paste Nekt’s callback address:
3

Grant read permissions

Under Permissões do aplicativo, mark Leitura (read) for every module you plan to sync — for example Contatos, Produtos, Notas Fiscais, Pedidos, and Contas a pagar/receber. Leave Incluir e editar and Excluir unchecked: Nekt only reads your data.
4

Save and copy the keys

Click salvar. Olist generates a Client ID and Client Secret under Chaves de acesso — copy both.
5

Authorize in Nekt

Back in Nekt, enter the Client ID and Client Secret, then complete the authorization: log in to the same Olist Tiny account and confirm the requested read permissions.
The application belongs to the Olist account that created it, which is why each account uses its own Client ID and Client Secret. If you change the marked permissions after authorizing, you must authorize again for the changes to take effect. Authorize with an account that can view the data you intend to sync — some modules depend on your Olist Tiny plan.
The following configurations are available:
  • Client ID and Client Secret: (Required) From the application you created in your own Olist account.
  • Refresh token: Captured automatically when you authorize. Olist rotates it on every run and it expires in about a day, so keep this source running at least daily — otherwise you’ll need to authorize again.
  • Start Date: (Optional) Lower bound for extraction. Products and Contacts sync incrementally from this date (dataAlteracao / dataAtualizacao); Orders, Invoices, and Accounts payable/receivable use it as an emission-date floor. If omitted, the full history available in the API is synced.
Once you’re done, click Next.

2. Select streams

Choose which data streams you want to sync. For faster extractions, select only the streams that are relevant to your analysis. You can select entire groups of streams or pick specific ones.
Tip: The stream can be found more easily by typing its name.
Select the streams and click Next.

3. Configure data streams

Customize how you want your data to appear in your catalog. Select the desired layer where the data will be placed, a folder to organize it inside the layer, a name for each table (which will effectively contain the fetched data) and the type of sync.
  • Layer: choose between the existing layers on your catalog. This is where you will find your new extracted tables as the extraction runs successfully.
  • Folder: a folder can be created inside the selected layer to group all tables being created from this new data source.
  • Table name: we suggest a name, but feel free to customize it. You have the option to add a prefix to all tables at once and make this process faster!
  • Sync Type: you can choose between INCREMENTAL and FULL_TABLE.
    • Incremental: every time the extraction happens, we’ll get only the new data - which is good if, for example, you want to keep every record ever fetched.
    • Full table: every time the extraction happens, we’ll get the current state of the data - which is good if, for example, you don’t want to have deleted data in your catalog.
Once you are done configuring, click Next.

4. Configure data source

Describe your data source for easy identification within your organization, not exceeding 140 characters. To define your Trigger, consider how often you want data to be extracted from this source. This decision usually depends on how frequently you need the new table data updated (every day, once a week, or only at specific times). Optionally, you can define some additional settings:
  • Configure Delta Log Retention and determine for how long we should store old states of this table as it gets updated. Read more about this resource here.
  • Determine when to execute an Additional Full Sync. This will complement the incremental data extractions, ensuring that your data is completely synchronized with your source every once in a while.
Once you are ready, click Next to finalize the setup.

5. Check your new source

You can view your new source on the Sources page. If needed, manually trigger the source extraction by clicking on the arrow button. Once executed, your data will appear in your Catalog.
For you to be able to see it on your Catalog, you need at least one successful source run.

Streams and Fields

Below you’ll find all available data streams from Olist Tiny and their fields, as returned by the API v3 list endpoints. Every record is keyed by id. Nested objects (such as cliente, endereco, and vendedor) are returned as structured objects — access their fields with dot notation (for example cliente.nome).
Sales orders with customer, seller, shipping, and total.Key Fields:
Product catalog with pricing and stock. Synced incrementally by dataAlteracao.Key Fields:
Contacts / customers registry. Synced incrementally by dataAtualizacao.Key Fields:
Fiscal invoices (Nota Fiscal eletrônica) with customer, delivery, shipping, and totals.Key Fields:
Accounts payable entries. Accepts a Start Date lower bound on the emission date.Key Fields:
Accounts receivable entries. Accepts a Start Date lower bound on the emission date.Key Fields:
Sellers / sales representatives registry.Key Fields:
Product brands registry.Key Fields:
Payment methods registry.Key Fields:
Warehouses / stock deposits registry.Key Fields:

Data Model

The following diagram illustrates the relationships between the core data streams in Olist Tiny. Orders and invoices embed the customer and seller as nested objects, and reference the seller by vendedor.id.

Implementation Notes

Sync mode

  • Incremental: Products (dataAlteracao) and Contacts (dataAtualizacao).
  • Full table with an emission-date floor from the optional Start Date: Orders and Invoices (dataInicial), Accounts payable and Accounts receivable (dataInicialEmissao).
  • Full table: Sellers, Brands, Payment methods, and Warehouses.

Authentication and token lifetime

Authentication is OAuth 2.0 with a per-account application (your own Client ID and Client Secret). The refresh token rotates on every run and expires in about a day, so schedule this source to run at least once daily; if it stays idle longer, you’ll need to authorize the application again.

Nested objects and types

Nested entities (cliente, endereco, vendedor, transportador, ecommerce, precos, estoque, …) are returned as structured objects — query them with dot notation, e.g. cliente.nome. Record id values are integers; most monetary and weight fields (valor, saldo, pesoBruto) are numbers, while a few (such as pedidos.valor) come back as strings — cast as needed. Dates use ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD; incremental keys use YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS).

Rate limits

The Olist Tiny v3 API enforces per-plan request limits shared across the whole account. On large accounts a full sync may take a while; the connector paginates results and retries on transient errors so runs still complete.

Brazilian context

This connector is designed for the Brazilian market:
  • Currency: Values are in BRL (Brazilian Real).
  • Documents: Counterparties are identified by CPF (individuals) or CNPJ (companies) in the cpfCnpj field.
  • Addresses: Brazilian address format with CEP (postal code) and state abbreviation (uf).
