Fetch gemstone data from GIA

Gemstone certificates improve buyers' experience, add value to the product and build trust between you and your buyers. Valigara integration with GIA allows fetching the available gemstone parameters. 

This include certificates images (PDF and JPG files), which provide more detailed information to buyers and increase the chances of selling. Certificate images are stored in the gemstone page, and are handled separately from product images.

To run the GIA integration:

1. Go to Inventory -> Gemstones
2. Select the gemstones to update
3. Click System Actions -> "Get data from external system"
4. in the "Get data" pop-up:

• System: GIA
• Mode:
  • PDF only - fetches only the certificate file in gemstone
  • PDF and override data - fetches the certificate file, and overrides existing gemstone data with GIA data
  • PDF and fill missing data - fetches the certificate, and adds the missing gemstone data
• Certificate number:
  • select First or Second depending on whether GIA certificate number is stored in "Certificate number" or in "Certificate number 2" field. (2 certificate images are available per gemstone)

5. Click Yes to start the process

6. After the batch is processed, the certificate file is available in the gemstone, as an image file and .pdf

To fetch the gemstone information, GIA requires the "Precise weight" and "certificate number" fields of the gemstone. Make sure to fill them before running the integration.
