What this integration does
The Gelato connector in VeloCMS listens for the afterOrderCreate event on paid orders. If the order includes physical items, the connector reads your Gelato API key and store ID, maps the order line items through a variant map you configure, and creates a real Gelato order with the customer's shipping address. The connector skips digital-only orders, incomplete addresses, and orders that are already marked as fulfilled, so a replayed webhook never creates a duplicate Gelato order. It is a one-way push: VeloCMS creates the order in Gelato, and Gelato manages production, routing, and delivery from its global network.
