Connect Xledger to Watchdog with an API token that provides read access to invoices and documents.

​
Before you begin

Ask an Xledger Domain Administrator to create the token with the permissions described below.

​
Connect in Watchdog

  1. Open Integrations → Xledger and add a connection.
  2. Paste the API token.
  3. Select Test Connection, then save the connection.
  4. Optionally select suppliers under Settings.

​
For the Xledger administrator

  1. Sign in with the Domain Administrator role.
  2. Open API Token Management, also available under Administration → System Access → GraphQL → API tokens.
  3. Create a token with a recognizable name, such as “Watchdog”.
  4. Select Read for Accounts Payable, General Ledger, and Common.
  5. Generate the token and copy it into Watchdog.
Grant read access; Watchdog does not need write access. Keep the token secure. See Xledger’s API-token guide.

​
If the connection does not work

Check that the token belongs to the production environment and has the required read permissions. A token from Xledger’s demo environment cannot be used with the production environment Watchdog connects to.
