Connect Medius to Watchdog - Watchdog Help Center

Connect Medius to retrieve supplier invoices and their documents in Watchdog.

Before you begin

Ask your Medius administrator to prepare the access described below. You will need:

Detail	Description
Tenant	Your company’s segment in the Medius address, such as `acme` in `https://cloud.mediusflow.com/acme/`
Client ID	The client ID for Watchdog
Client Secret	The secret belonging to that client ID

Connect in Watchdog

Open Integrations → Medius and add a connection.
Enter the three details.
Select Test Connection, then save the connection once access has been checked.

For the Medius administrator

Open Medius Administration → Client Applications and create a client application for Watchdog.
Select Client Credentials as the authentication method (Grant Type).
Enable the Integration and Integration.Export scopes.
Enable the client application itself.
Copy the client ID and client secret into the Watchdog setup.

Keep the client secret secure. Watchdog uses this access to retrieve invoices and documents; it does not change invoices in Medius. See Medius’ API sign-in guide.

If the connection test cannot finish

Watchdog needs a sample posted invoice to check the setup. If the error says this sample is missing, ask your administrator to make an existing invoice with status posted and tag FINAL available through the API. Then run the test again. For sign-in failures, also check that the application is enabled and uses Client Credentials.
