This article walks through enabling and setting up third-party integrations via the GrowFlow API, such as menus, marketing communication platforms, etc.
PLEASE NOTE: This article applies to any third-party service which requires an API access key as provided by GrowFlow. Click on any of the following services that provide their own API access to review the applicable setup steps:
How to enable Menus in Settings
Menus must be enabled in your Settings in order to set up integrations. To do this:
1. Navigate to Settings.
2. Scroll down to the Menu Settings section and turn on the toggle(s) for Menus and (if applicable) Pre-orders. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Save & Close to save your changes.
Add a new integration
1. Navigate to Settings.
2. Click the Menus tab.
3. Click the green plus (+) button in the top-right corner of the page.
4. The Add New Menu modal will appear. Fill out the Menu Name. You can choose to publish it or leave it unpublished until you’re ready for it to be public by flipping on the Published toggle or leaving it off.
5. For Menu Type select the integration partner you need to generate an API key for. If the menu type you're setting up is not listed, select "Other".
Here is a list of integrators that require the Other menu type:
Divvy Digital
Alpine IQ
Sparkplug
Skoop
Happy Cabbage
6. Once you select the Menu Type, you will see a button to Generate Access Key. Some integration partners call this the API key rather than the Access Key, but it’s the same thing. Click on Generate Access Key. This is the key you will need to provide to your integration partner.
7. Copy and save your Access (API) Key so you can easily access it later on.
8. If your integrator provides a menu service, please review the article for Setting up Menu Groups.
9. Once you are done, click Save & Close at the bottom of the modal.
