When you begin importing or synchronizing products, shipping methods, product reviews, and other data, you may encounter the following token messages:
- AliExpress access token is not found
- AliExpress access token has expired
To resolve this, you need to obtain a new access token from AliExpress. Once retrieved, save it in the AliNext (formerly Ali2Woo) dropshipping plugin. After saving, the token will be automatically renewed for your convenience.
Please follow the instructions below to complete this process.

How to Get AliExpress Access Token in AliNext Dropshipping Plugin?
- Log in to your AliExpress account
Use your own account — the same one you normally place orders with.

- Open AliNext settings
In WordPress, go to AliNext > Account Settings and click Get Access Token.

- Authorize access
A popup window will appear asking you to confirm AliNext’s use of the AliExpress API. Click Authorize.

- Check the token
After authorization, a new token key will appear in the table.

Tip: If the popup window is blocked by your browser, enable popups to continue.
While creating token i found this error
Fatal error: Uncaught Requests_Exception: cURL error 28: Connection timed out after 10000 milliseconds in ….
Hello, it should be fixed now.
Merci ca marche très bien
In the wordPress plugin – ali2woo-Account settings – Aliexpress API – click get actess token, there is no response, no token key appears
Try to clean your browser cookies and try again.
I followed all the steps, but it still doesn’t work.
I generated the Aliexpress API but it always gives the same error:
“Placing orders from 0/1…
Please install and link to your website the Ali2Woo google chrome extension to use this feature.”
and everything is installed, all the same as this link of yours.
What is the solution?
You click on the button to place order using the chrome extension, instead you have to click on another button (place order with API).

It seems that Aliexpress has temporarily blocked your API token. Our research suggests that this can happen when you are actively syncing or importing products. Usually, the token becomes unlocked within a few days.
We understand that you have already tried to refresh your token using the instructions from the article. However, you can attempt to generate a new token again in a few days. If Aliexpress unlocks your account, then you will be able to import products once again.
As an alternative solution, we offer AliNext, which doesn’t use the Aliexpress API for product imports or syncing. This means that you won’t encounter any token-related issues while using AliNext. Additionally, AliNext is fully compatible with Ali2Woo, making migration easy. If you’re interested in using AliNext, please check out this page: AliNext plugin

Do I have to apply for AliExpress Api in order to use your plugin? Aliexpress says it is not needed if I use a third party program like yours.. Is that correct?
Yes, exactly, you don’t need to apply for AliExpress API.

You can always generate a new access token in the plugin settings.

ok, sure
how ? also it’s happened with me , do i have to delete the old token key first ? because when im klick on get access token it’s open another page ( aliexpress open platform ) and when im applying my username and password i click on authorize but nothing it’s happen I’m still not getting the new access token key ! , can you please help
No, you shouldn’t remove the old token; instead, you can simply obtain a new one. If the AliExpress portal doesn’t provide a new token right away, try again after some time. Additionally, consider using a different browser or internet connection, as the issue may be related to internet cache or an API timeout on the AliExpress side.
