# Set Up Sales Channels

With the connector, you can operate **multiple sales channels** through a single connection. First, the Shopware **sales channels** are mapped; you can then assign items specifically to one or more channels.

**Basic setup**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Load channels**

Use [Load Initial Data](/shopware/shopware6_en_us/configuration/load-shopware-initial-data.md) to import the Shopware sales channels.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Mark the default channel**

In the [Shopware Assignment](/shopware/shopware6_en_us/configuration/shopware-assignment-and-mapping.md) (module *Sales Channel*), use **is Selected** to mark the default channels. Missing default channels are assigned to items automatically.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Assign items**

On the Item Card, use the **Sales Channel** section to assign individual items to specific channels. For details, see the chapter [Sales Channels on the Item](/shopware/shopware6_en_us/master-data-management/sales-channels-on-the-item.md).
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
For a product to be visible in the shop, it must be assigned to a sales channel. The connector sets the visibility automatically.
{% endhint %}

**Multi-channel operation**

The guide [Operate Multiple Sales Channels](/shopware/shopware6_en_us/onboarding-and-best-practices/operate-multiple-sales-channels.md) shows how to organize multiple channels effectively.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.solutioo.de/shopware/shopware6_en_us/configuration/set-up-sales-channels.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
