metALUm review for Etsy Integration by shopUpz

Oct. 29, 2025

I feel misled as a consumer. The developer promotes a “free trial” version that supposedly allows you to export products from Shopify to Etsy. In reality, the export does not work at all. The process fails with a technical error (“Expected int value for ‘readiness_state_id’”), because essential API fields are blocked in the free plan. This means the trial cannot be used to test the app’s actual functionality — you cannot verify whether the export works, the data structure is correct, or the listings are created properly on Etsy. I spent time setting up and configuring everything carefully, only to find out that the trial version is incapable of creating even a single draft listing. If this limitation had been clearly communicated upfront, I would not have installed the app in the first place. This is not a limited trial — it is a non-functional placeholder. If you value your time, skip this app and look for a provider that offers a genuine, working trial instead.
