Preamble (Cdiscount)

Compatibility

The 4.5 branch of the Cdiscount Marketplace module is compatible with PrestaShop 1.7 to 9.x.

Always use the latest module version provided by Common-Services (Addons or support update link).

Pre-configuration

By default, the original configuration fits most common needs.
Only change advanced settings if necessary, and only if you understand the impact.

Where to find the module

Once installed and configured, you will find the module here:

• Modules > Module Manager > Cdiscount (Configure): full configuration (Credentials, Models, Profiles, Categories, Transport, Settings, Cron, etc.)
• Catalog > Cdiscount: product creation (Product Integration) and offer send/update (Offer Integration)
• Orders > Cdiscount: order acceptance and import
• PrestaShop product sheet: Cdiscount sub-tab (optional options: forced price, forced stock, delay, offer comment, etc.)

Read this before configuring

1. Understanding the Difference Between Offers and Products (Cdiscount)
2. Validate your catalog structure (Cdiscount)
3. Then the Configure section (install → Octopia connection → models → profiles → categories → transport)

Octopia connection

The module connects to the marketplace through Octopia (Cdiscount API).
You will need a Client ID, a Client Secret, and a Seller ID.

See: Configure the connection settings (Cdiscount)

Profiles and Models

The module is built around two concepts:

• The Model: defines the Cdiscount category / taxonomy and expected fields (features, attributes, variants). This is where you choose the marketplace category.
• The Profile: applies business rules (price, shipping, stock, preparation time, CDaV, etc.) and is linked to a model. In the Categories tab, you link your PrestaShop categories to a profile.

💡 In short: the Cdiscount category is configured in the Model. The Profile carries the export rules. The Categories tab links your PrestaShop categories to the chosen profile.

The model is mainly required for product sheet creation. To publish offers only on already known products (EAN matching), a correctly configured profile + transport can be enough.

EAN / GTIN codes

The module works in matching and creation modes:

• If the EAN already exists on Cdiscount/Octopia → your offer can be linked to it (matching).
• If the EAN is unknown → you must first create the product (Product Integration), then send the offer.

Private / local codes (e.g. 200…, 000…) or non-GS1 codes are prohibited.

⚠️ Important: GTIN/EAN is mandatory for any product creation. No exemption is granted by Octopia/Cdiscount.

Recommended first go-live path

1. Install the module and save the configuration
2. Connect Octopia (Credentials)
3. Create at least one Model + one Profile
4. Check the PrestaShop Categories and assign the profile
5. Configure Transport (modes + ChargeMin)
6. Decide: product creation (if EAN unknown), then Full Package for offers
7. Configure scheduled tasks (cron)
