# Home (https://sellersheetai.com/help/app/home)

> The Home screen of the SellerSheet app.



Home is the first screen after you sign in: a setup guide until your workspace is ready, then your plan, stores, Credits, invitations and this month's usage at a glance.

## Main steps — get your workspace ready [#main-steps]

The **Setup guide** walks you through four steps, about 5 minutes in all. A member — not the owner or an admin — sees steps 3 and 4 only, because the owner connects the stores. So does someone whose own workspace is empty while they are invited to, or belong to, another one.

1. **Connect your Amazon store** — Seller or Vendor Central, your region and marketplaces, a short store name. Amazon then asks you to confirm. [Step 1](#step-1-connect-your-amazon-store)
2. **Connect Amazon Ads** — lets SellerSheet read campaigns and reports. Skip it if you don't run ads. [Step 2](#step-2-connect-amazon-ads)
3. **Install the sidebar & share folder** — the Google Sheets add-on, your SellerSheet folder in Drive, and a connection check. [Step 3](#step-3-install-the-sidebar--share-folder)
4. **Connect your AI client** — Claude, Claude Code, Codex or ChatGPT. You sign in; there is no key to copy. [Step 4](#step-4-connect-your-ai-client)

Each step shows **Done**, **Now**, **Up next** or **Skipped**. Step 4 ticks itself when your AI client makes its first call.

## Every control [#controls]

What each control changes:

| Effect                                      | Meaning                                                                                            |
| ------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <EffectBadge effect="read" />               | Reads or opens something — changes nothing.                                                        |
| Changes SellerSheet                         | Saved in your SellerSheet workspace only — nothing is sent to Amazon or noon.                      |
| Changes Amazon access · Changes noon access | Sends you to Amazon's or noon's sign-in to authorize SellerSheet — your listings stay as they are. |

Nothing on Home changes your Amazon or noon listings, and nothing on it uses Credits.

### Header [#header]

| Control              | What it does                                                                      | Effect                        |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| **Show setup guide** | Brings the setup guide back after you hid it. Shown whenever the guide is hidden. | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |

When you arrive from connecting a store, a one-time sentence at the top says how it went.

### Invitations [#invitations]

Shown first when another workspace has invited you.

| Control     | What it does                                                                                                                                                       | Effect              |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------- |
| **Accept**  | Opens **Join** *workspace*. Optionally give each shared store **Your name for it (optional)** — only you see it. Confirm to join and reach the stores they shared. | Changes SellerSheet |
| **Decline** | Asks you to confirm, then declines. They would have to invite you again.                                                                                           | Changes SellerSheet |

### Setup guide [#setup-guide]

| Control                                                      | What it does                                                                                     | Effect                        |
| ------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------- |
| **Hide**                                                     | Hides the guide in this browser. When every step is done, the guide starts hidden.               | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| Step chips **1 · Connect store** … **4 · Connect AI client** | Open that step beside the walkthrough video. **Progress N of M complete** counts the done steps. | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |

### Step 1 · Connect your Amazon store [#step-1-connect-your-amazon-store]

The store's name becomes its ref everywhere — in the sidebar and with your AI — for example `myStore-US`. Only the owner or an admin can connect a store.

| Control                                   | What it does                                                                                                                                                                                                                                | Effect                |
| ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------- |
| **Add a store**                           | Opens the Add Amazon Store dialog: Seller or Vendor Central, region, marketplaces, a store name. Amazon then asks you to confirm, and you come back to Home. The dialog is described on [Stores & Marketplaces](/help/app/settings/stores). | Changes Amazon access |
| **Selling on noon? Connect noon instead** | Opens the dialog to connect a noon account instead.                                                                                                                                                                                         | Changes noon access   |

### Step 2 · Connect Amazon Ads [#step-2-connect-amazon-ads]

Unlocks after step 1. Only the owner or an admin can authorize Ads. A workspace that sells on noon only has nothing to connect here.

| Control                    | What it does                                                                                                          | Effect                        |
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| **Store**                  | The store to authorize Ads for.                                                                                       | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| **Authorize Ads**          | Opens Amazon. You pick the advertising account, then you are back here.                                               | Changes Amazon access         |
| **I don't run ads — skip** | Marks the step skipped for you. You can authorize Ads any time on [Stores & Marketplaces](/help/app/settings/stores). | Changes SellerSheet           |

### Step 3 · Install the sidebar & share folder [#step-3-install-the-sidebar--share-folder]

| Control                | What it does                                                                                                                                                                                                        | Effect                        |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| **Install add-on**     | Opens the SellerSheet add-on on Google Workspace Marketplace in a new tab. Then open any Google Sheet and choose **Extensions → SellerSheet → Open Sidebar**; the sidebar creates your SellerSheet folder in Drive. | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| **New Google Sheet**   | Opens a new, empty Google Sheet in a new tab.                                                                                                                                                                       | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| **Automation address** | Copies `automation@sellersheetai.com`. In Drive, share your SellerSheet folder with it as **Editor**, so reports and your AI can write to your sheets.                                                              | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| **Verify connection**  | Checks that the sidebar saved your folder and that the automation address can open it. The answer appears under the button.                                                                                         | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |

### Step 4 · Connect your AI client [#step-4-connect-your-ai-client]

| Control                                                                             | What it does                                                                                                                                   | Effect                        |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| **Claude** · **Claude Code** · **Codex** · **ChatGPT**                              | Show the steps for that client: add the SellerSheet plugin (or, for ChatGPT, copy your **MCP URL**), then sign in with OAuth.                  | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| Copy fields — **Plugin repository**, **Commands**, **Sign-in command**, **MCP URL** | Copy the text to paste into your client.                                                                                                       | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| **Test the connection**                                                             | Shows a first prompt to send: "Show me my Amazon Seller Central sales for the last 7 days." The step ticks itself on your client's first call. | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| **Create an API key**                                                               | Opens **Settings → API & MCP**, for a script or another client (Cursor, Gemini, VS Code…). See [Keys & store access](/docs/mcp-api/keys).      | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |
| **Full MCP setup docs**                                                             | Opens the MCP setup documentation.                                                                                                             | <EffectBadge effect="read" /> |

The sign-in reaches every workspace you belong to — your own stores and the ones shared with you. No API key is needed. Step-by-step for each client: [Connect an AI client](/docs/start/clients).

### Plan, Stores, Credits and Shared with me [#cards]

| Card               | What it shows                                                                                    | Its link                                                                       |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Plan**           | Your plan's name and status — **Active**, **Expired** or **No subscription** — and when it ends. | —                                                                              |
| **Stores**         | How many **Amazon stores** and **noon accounts** the workspace has.                              | **Stores & Marketplaces** → [Stores & Marketplaces](/help/app/settings/stores) |
| **Credits**        | Your Credits balance and the **Model route** your AI actions run on.                             | **Billing & Credits** → [Billing & Credits](/help/app/settings/billing)        |
| **Shared with me** | How many invitations wait for you, or **No invitations**.                                        | **Review invitations** jumps to [Invitations](#invitations).                   |

All four only read. If the setup guide and usage cannot load, the cards still show and Home says **Your setup guide and usage could not load**.

### Usage [#usage]

This organization's plan, this month:

| Meter                              | What it counts                                                                                                         |
| ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Orders this month**              | Orders against your plan's cap, marked **Within plan**, **Near the cap** or **Over the cap**, with the date it resets. |
| **Amazon stores**                  | Connected Amazon stores against the cap.                                                                               |
| **Team seats**                     | Seats in use, pending invitations included.                                                                            |
| **Marketplaces (Amazon and noon)** | Synced marketplaces of Amazon stores and noon accounts on one cap.                                                     |

A bar turns amber from 80% of its cap and red at the cap. **no cap** means the plan does not limit it. The caps of each plan are on [Plans and prices](/#pricing).
