Step 2 - Activate the API in Luminovo

While there are two APIs listed, Online Components is a brand from Master Electronics and therefore share the same request process. You can activate both APIs or just one. Below you find the description on how to activate the APIs once you received the API key.

Activate the Master Electronics API.

To activate the API go to settings and then select the tab Supplier API integration.

Click on Master Electronics and click Connect account. Enter the Token and hit Save.

Activate the Online Components API.

To activate the API go to settings and then select the tab Supplier API integration.

Click on Online Components and click Connect account. Enter the Token and hit Save.

Once activated, the API should indicate that it has successfully activated (with the green Active tag) the connection and can be used in Luminovo.
