This article will describe creating an API user within ProSoftware for detamoov. After creating your API user, you'll use this information to create a premier integration within detamoov.
Step 1: Creating an API User within ProSoftware
Please follow the directions below provided to detamoov from the ProSoftware team. Within ProSoftware:
- Navigate to User > User Setup (New)
- Create a new user, called “detamoovAPIUser”.
- Create a password and make note of it, as you’ll be entering this in the detamoov UI in a later step.
- Use the ‘Add Access’ button to map clients to the User. Data for a given client will only be sent to detamoov if the client has been mapped in this way.
- Save!
- Send an email to [email protected], requesting that the User be enabled for API access. Be sure to include the Username, and note that you may need to request your CustomerName (see below)
Step 2: Configure the GL Setup (for each client) in ProSoftware
Within ProSoftware:
- Navigate to Client > GL Tool
- Click on the GL Setup record which will be sent to detamoov
- Set the ‘Export Type’ to ‘Detamoov’.
- Save!
Step 3: Creating a ProSoftware Premier Integration within detamoov
Within detamoov:
- Click on the Tools item on the left hand menu
- Click on the Integration Services tab
- Expand the Premier Integrations section and click on the Add button
- Select the ProSoftware API option from the Premier Service dropdown list
- Enter a name for this integration. We recommend something like "Your Company Name ProSoftware API"
- Enter the Base URL for the API given to you from ProSoftware. The Base URL is a URL which is used to navigate to your Pro Software instance. It is always in the format https://{CustomerName}.prosoftware.com/APIService/Closed. Example: https://ACME.prosoftware.com/APIService/Closed. If you are unsure of your Customer Name, request this in your email to [email protected]
- Enter the two-character company identifier from ProSoftware. Example: 01
- Enter the API username you created in step 1 above
- Enter the API password you created in step 1 above
