Home Depot CA supports **guest checkout only**, making it a straightforward and reliable module for retail restocks and in-stock pickups. It’s primarily used for tools, hardware, seasonal items, and high-demand restocks that often appear without warning.

***

### **Preliminary Checklist**

Before setting up tasks on Home Depot CA, make sure you have everything below prepared:

* **Profiles**

> Create and save your checkout [profiles](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-profiles-tab/how-do-i-add-a-profile) under the **Profiles tab** in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info.

* **Proxies**

> - **ISP proxies** – Recommended for monitoring tasks.
> - **Residential proxies** – Recommended for checkout tasks. Save both proxy groups under the **Proxies tab** in Stellar.
>   * If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/stella-proxies) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies

* **Cook Group Access**

> Optional but recommended. Your [cook group](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups) can help you find product URLs, SKUs and early restock alerts.

* **Test Task**

> Before big drops, run a **test task** on a random in stock product to confirm your profiles, proxies and delays are functioning correctly.

### When to Use Each Mode

* **Monitor Mode** → Detects restocks and pings your checkout tasks
* **Shipping Mode** → Use for regular shipping checkout flow

***

### **Profile Selection**

Select the profile to be used for checkout.\
Home Depot CA does **not** support accounts; all checkouts are guest.

***

### **Proxy Setup**

Both **ISP** and **Residential** proxies are supported.\
Higher-quality proxies result in fewer errors.\
If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](https://help.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/stella-proxies) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies

***

### **Product SKU**

An item’s unique identifier.\
Found near the end of most product URLs.

**Example:**\
`https://www.homedepot.ca/product/.../1001814680`\
SKU = **1001814680**

It's recommended to get product SKUs from your [cookgroup](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups).

***

### **Quantity (QTY)**

Check your [cookgroup](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups) for product-specific purchase limits.\
Stellar does **not** auto-adjust quantities.

***

### **ZIP Code**

* Determines your default store selection
* Different ZIP codes may affect pricing or availability
* Only use if you want to override your Profile’s ZIP

***

### **Store ID**

Overrides ZIP code.\
Sets a specific store as your default location.

Store IDs can be found here:\
`https://stores.homedepot.ca/`

***

### **Maximum Price**

Sets a price ceiling to prevent purchasing items above your desired max spend.

***

### **Delays**

* **Shipping Delay:** 3000ms
* **Monitor Delay:** 5000ms
* **Reset Delay:** 9000ms

***

### **Watch Task – How It Works**

The **Watch Task** option connects your Shipping task to your Monitor task.

#### **If Watch Task is enabled:**

* The checkout task does **not** monitor
* It waits for a Monitor task with the **same SKU**
* When the item restocks, the Monitor task **pings** the checkout
* Checkout task adds to cart → proceeds to checkout

Your checkout task will show:\
\&#xNAN;**“Waiting for Monitor Ping”**\
This is correct.

#### **If Watch Task is disabled:**

The checkout task monitors the SKU itself, adds to cart, and checks out directly.

#### **Why Watch Task is recommended**

* Reduces proxy bans
* Improves task performance
* Keeps monitoring centralized and efficient
