Importing of existing Gift Card Numbers and values

rubes10

We have approximately 5500 active gift cards that we need to get loaded into the lightspeed system. We were informed by Lightspeed support that this could be done via API but NOT via import. Our API developer is attempting to load this information but is getting the error: Insufficient rights to perform the request. I contacted Lightspeed support and was told that the API team no longer takes support questions (which is the most ludicrious thing I have ever heard) If someone could point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Hey @rubes10, we provide support on this forum.

Has your developer registered their client and gone through the OAuth authentication process?

You can read more about this here:

If your developer’s client has already been approved then it’s likely to be an issue of scope. I would suggest employee:all is selected. More about this can be read here: https://developers.lightspeedhq.com/retail/authentication/scopes/
