You must complete the following steps before connecting to Cin7 Core:

  2. Either create a new user and assign them to the new role or assign an existing user to the new role

  3. Add integration settings for Cin7 Core in Magento.

Create a new user role in Magento

  1. Log on to the Admin Panel of your Magento store.

  6. Click the Role Resources tab, then set Resource Access to All. Click Save Role.
    After adding the new user role, you can either create a new user and assign them to the new role, or assign an existing user to the new role.

Create a new user and assign role

  1. On the Admin Panel, click System → All Users.

Assign an existing user to the role
