Odoo Connector
Odoo is a suite of open source business apps that include CRM, eCommerce, accounting, inventory, project management, etc.
This component allows querying and managing records in an Odoo database.
Connections
API Key
Authenticate requests to Odoo using an API key.
To authenticate with Odoo, an API key is required. This component calls Odoo's JSON-2 HTTP API and requires Odoo 19.0 or later. Earlier versions, which only support the soon to be deprecated XML-RPC transport, are not supported.
Prerequisites
- An Odoo 19.0 or later instance (Odoo Online, Odoo.sh, or self-hosted)
- An Odoo user account with permissions for the records the integration will manage
- Developer mode enabled in Odoo (required to access the API Keys interface)
Setup Steps
- Log in to the Odoo instance
- Click the user avatar in the top-right corner and select My Profile
- Open the Account Security tab
- Click New API Key and provide a descriptive name and expiration
- Copy the generated API key immediately (it is shown only once)
For more details, refer to the Odoo external API documentation.
Generate the API key from a dedicated service-account user (not a specific employee's account) so the integration is not tied to an individual's access.
Configure the Connection
Create a connection of type API Key and configure the following fields:
- Odoo Base URL: Enter the URL used to log in to Odoo, for example
https://example-company.odoo.com. Omit any trailing slash. - Server Port: Leave blank for default HTTP (80) or HTTPS (443). Set only when a self-hosted Odoo instance listens on a non-standard port.
- Odoo Database Name: Click the user avatar in the top-right within Odoo and select My Databases to find the database name.
- API Key: Enter the API key copied in the previous section.
| Input | Comments | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Odoo Base URL | The URL used to log in to the Odoo instance. | |
| Server Port | The port to connect on. Leave blank to use the default HTTP (80) or HTTPS (443) port. | |
| Odoo Database Name | The name of the Odoo database to connect to. Found in Odoo by clicking the user icon at the top-right and selecting 'My Databases'. | |
| API Key | The API key used to authenticate requests. In Odoo, open the profile menu, then Account Security, and create a new API Key. Requires Odoo 19.0 or later. |
Basic Authentication (Deprecated)
Authenticate using a username and password against Odoo's XML-RPC API. Maintained for backwards compatibility with existing integrations. Odoo will drop XML-RPC support in 19.1 (mid-2026); use the API Key connection for new integrations.
The Basic Authentication (Deprecated) connection authenticates against Odoo's XML-RPC API with a username and password. It is maintained for backwards compatibility with integrations built against earlier versions of this component.
Odoo will drop XML-RPC support in 19.1 (mid-2026). Migrate existing integrations to the API Key connection before that release. New integrations should use the API Key connection instead.
Prerequisites
- An Odoo instance that still exposes the XML-RPC endpoint
- An Odoo user account with permissions for the records the integration will manage
Configure the Connection
Create a connection of type Basic Authentication (Deprecated) and configure the following fields:
- Odoo Base URL: Enter the URL used to log in to Odoo, for example
https://example-company.odoo.com. Omit any trailing slash. - Server Port: Leave blank for default HTTP (80) or HTTPS (443). Set only when a self-hosted Odoo instance listens on a non-standard port.
- Odoo Database Name: Click the user avatar in the top-right within Odoo and select My Databases to find the database name.
- Username: The username (typically the email address) used to log in to Odoo.
- Password or API Key: The user's password, or an API key generated under Account Security → New API Key.
