The Arbana Sale Tracker is the official connector plugin for the Arbana mobile marketplace. It allows WooCommerce store owners to seamlessly sync their on-sale inventory with the Arbana app, ensuring mobile users always see the most up-to-date deals and promotions.
This plugin runs quietly in the background, listening for product updates. When you put a product on sale in WooCommerce, this plugin automatically formats the data to the strict Arbana JSON schema and pushes it to the cloud.
Key Features:
- Real-time Sync: Instantly updates the Arbana app when you create, update, or delete sale products.
- Automatic Formatting: Converts WooCommerce product data into optimized JSON payloads, including generated promotion IDs.
- Manual Batch Sync: Includes a one-click tool to sync your existing inventory of on-sale items.
- Secure Connection: Uses OAuth-style authentication to securely link your store to your Arbana account without sharing admin passwords.
- Lightweight: Designed to minimize database load by only tracking products that are actively on sale.

FAQ
-
Do I need an Arbana account to use this plugin?
-
Yes. This plugin acts as a bridge between your WooCommerce store and the Arbana platform. You will be prompted to create or sign in to your Arbana account during the setup process.
-
Does this sync all my products?
-
No. To keep the mobile app focused on deals, this plugin currently only syncs products that have a “Sale Price” set in WooCommerce.
-
What happens if I delete a product?
-
The plugin listens for deletion events and will automatically send a request to remove the item from the Arbana app, keeping your inventory in sync.
-
I have thousands of products. Will the sync crash my site?
-
The “Sync All” feature pages through your on-sale products in batches of 50 and sends each batch as one bulk request, so very large catalogs sync without timing out. Real-time updates from product saves are also debounced and batched into a single request, so a bulk import that touches hundreds of products at once produces one outbound call per debounce window — not one per product.

1.0.1
- Fixed: API endpoint, authentication header, and auth type so payloads actually reach the server (previously every request 404’d silently).
- Fixed:
sale_priceno longer truncated to an integer; full numeric precision preserved. - Fixed: Variable products now ship full variant data (SKU, prices, attributes, image) instead of just child IDs.
- Fixed: Vendor identifier derived from the site URL so multi-store installs no longer collide on the same key.
- Fixed: Product availability and channel values now match the Arbana API schema.
- Fixed: Hard deletes routed through the debounce queue so bulk-deletes don’t fan out one HTTP request per product.
- Fixed: WordPress 6.4+ — API key is stored without autoload to keep the secret out of the global options cache.
- Fixed: Promotion
end_dateno longer fabricated to “+30 days” when no end date is configured in WooCommerce. - Added: Persistent retry queue with exponential backoff for transient API failures; permanent failures (auth, malformed payload) drop fast instead of burning the retry budget.
- Added: Debounced per-save batching —
nrapid product updates collapse to one outbound request. - Added: Pagination over the full on-sale catalog during “Sync All” (no longer capped at 100).
- Added: Admin notice when WooCommerce is not active.
- Added:
ARBANA_API_ENDPOINTconstant override for staging / local development.
