An application integration allows two completely different software solutions to work together. 

POS Vault gives users the ability to generate API credentials for each store created within their account.  These credentials can then be shared with other solutions to establish a connection.   

Using mobile reporting application, Pegasus Reports as an example, if a connection is established between this application and a store within your POS Vault account, you will have the ability to access additional reporting along with meaningful analytics directly from your mobile device.  

This connection from the Pegasus Reports application to your POS Vault account is called "Integration".

This article will outline the POS Vault Integration process.

POS Vault Integration

Connecting POS Vault to any other solution requires that each store set up within your account has set of API credentials assigned to it. 

API Credentials provide the connection that allow two different systems to talk to one another.  

Establish or View Credentials

To establish or view credentials for a store:

  1. Select  Admin within the menu navigation pane 
  2. Select 
  3. Select the site you want to access information for 
  4. API Key information will be displayed



  5. If API information is not displayed, select Generate a New API Key to generate this information, and then Ok to confirm your selection
  6. API credentials will be displayed



  7. Store's API status will now reflect "Key Active" 


Revoke Credentials

To revoke credentials for a store:

  1. Select  Admin within the menu navigation pane 
  2. Select 
  3. Select the site you want to access information for 
  4. Select Revoke and then Ok, to confirm your selection
  5. API credentials will be deleted and the API status will update to reflect "Key Inactive"
  There is no limit to the number of times you can revoke and generate new API Key information.  Keep in mind that you if you change API Key information, it must be shared with those applications that you want to remain connected to.
