If you expect to receive contract price offers from DigiKey, from the DigiKey developer portal, click on "My account" in the top bar. It will show one or more Account ID(s):
Pick the correct Account ID from the list and plug it into the Account ID field in the Luminovo supplier API settings for DigiKey v4:
Please, leave the Account ID blank if you are not expecting contract price offers, as using an Account ID will make more requests to DigiKey and drain your API usage quota more quickly.
DigiKey gives 1000 requests/day as default rate limit, which is pretty low. We recommend you to increase your API limits, as documented below:
