Setup checklist

  • WooCommerce is active on the site
  • Aube AI plugin is connected
  • Products are synced
  • Order support rules are configured
  • Refund and return policies are in the knowledge base
1

Install the Aube AI WordPress plugin

Install and activate the plugin from WordPress Admin. Aube AI works on WordPress sites with or without WooCommerce, but WooCommerce adds product and order context.

2

Confirm WooCommerce is active

Make sure WooCommerce is installed, active, and using the same WordPress site where the Aube AI widget will appear.

3

Connect product and order access

In the Aube AI dashboard, follow the WooCommerce connection flow so the assistant can use product data and help with order-related questions. For manual plugin installs, create WooCommerce REST API keys from WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > REST API keys > Add key, then paste the consumer key and secret into Aube AI. Copy the secret before leaving WooCommerce because it is only shown once.

Sync products and categories

Run the first catalog sync, then confirm product names, descriptions, stock status, and categories are visible in the dashboard.

5

Write policies for edge cases

Add return windows, refund rules, shipping regions, warranty terms, and manual escalation rules. These entries keep answers consistent with your store policy.
