Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. The following are the steps needed to give this connector authorization to access data from Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) stores.
Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) Setup
- If you haven’t done so already, create a developer account with Lightspeed Retail (X-Series).
Note: Your developer account credentials are independent of your Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) account so your existing Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) credentials will not work here.
- Once logged in go to My Applications page.
- Create a new application by clicking the ‘Add New Application’ button and provide the requested information.
- Redirect URI will be https://{ServiceDomain}/connector/callback.
- Your Service Domain can be found in Settings > General Settings > Service Domain in your Cyclr console.
Note: Newly created apps are marked as Not Approved which means you can only connect your application to 30 Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) stores.
You will need to get Lightspeed’s approval for production ready, public applications.
- You will now have an application with a Client ID and Client Secret.
Cyclr Setup
- The connector can now be installed. Enter your Client ID, Client Secret and Store Name into the Cyclr interface, click ‘Next’ and then ‘Sign In’ on the next page.
- You will be redirected to Lightspeed Retail (X-Series)’s website where you will be guided through the login process.
- Allow Access.
- If the above steps completed successfully you will be redirected back to Cyclr. The connector is now installed and authenticated.
