Currently I am using the Shopify app Oberlo with it's chrome extension to manually send over dropship orders one by one.
This works find but I have between 100 to 1000 orders daily during testing.
Can anybody recommend a way to automate this using either an API directly from AliExpress (which the affiliate API is all I have been able to find) or possibly a laravel wrapper integrated with Shopify that has the ability to post dropship orders automatically.
Much appreciated!
I've been looking for similar documentation on AliExpress and found the dropshipping subsection of their API:
Get Product Info: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=35321&docType=2
Place an Order: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=35446&docType=2
Get Tracking info from a previous order: https://developers.aliexpress.com/en/doc.htm?docId=40656&docType=2
Other less-common dropshipping APIs are available from the sidebar navigation of any of these.
It also appears that you have to register as a seller (even though you're just buying) to get access to these dropshipping API.
You'll have to build a shopify app that can receive your orders and turn around to place them on AliExpress. I haven't seen a tool that can place orders automatically without coding.
