How to link Apple trade-in to Apple ID when a different email was used

I started a trade in online and I used an email different than my Apple icloud email. Because of this, I cannot locate where to check the status of my trade-in. How can I link the trade-in information to my Apple ID?

You cannot retroactively merge or link an active Apple Trade-In order to a different Apple ID once an online order is placed under a separate email address.
