Create a new API token for an integration partner
POSaBIT has an open API that allows merchants to pick and choose the best integration partner for their needs. Some partners allow users to enter the API token to enable the integration, while others require the token to be handed off to a member on their team to enable the integration.
POSaBIT v2 APIs are being sunset. New integrators should use the v3 API and connect through Settings > Integration Connections (NEW) instead of an API token. See Adding an Integrator to a Venue. Only create a new v2 token for an existing integrator that has not migrated to v3, and check with POSaBIT first (api-support@posabit.com).
- Log in to the POSaBIT POS Portal
- Click on Settings from the menu bar and then select Integrations.
- Click the New API Token button
- A Warning pop-up explains that new v2 tokens need approval. If you have approval, click Continue to New API Token.
- Fill out the fields to create the new token:
- Name: (i.e. Integrator's Name)
- Email (Of the integrator to notify of API changes)
- Description: This is optional
- Status: Check Active (API Token is enabled) to activate the API token
- Permissions: Select the flags based on the integration being set up:
- Menu Feed Access: Enable if setting up a menu feed integration.
- Incoming Orders Access: Enable if setting up an online ordering integration.
- Venue Data Access: Enable if setting up a data or marketing integration
- Enhanced Customer Data Access: Enable if setting up a loyalty integration.
- Click Save, then contact the third-party integrator and provide them with the API token. If the integration includes online ordering or menu, generate and include a menu feed token. Check out this article for more information about menu feeds. How should i setup my menu feed?
