Lookup Square Location from Square Location ID

Is it possible to lookup a square location in the Square Dashboard? trying to upload items via Catalogs API and getting some confusing results back. I would like to confirm that I am submitting the items to the location I think I am but the catalog items page in the Dashboard just has string names for the locations and no IDs that I can see.

Yes, you can look up a Square location in the Square Dashboard to confirm the location ID you are submitting items to via the Catalog API. To find the location ID, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to the Developer Dashboard: Go to the Square Developer Dashboard and log in with your Square account credentials.

  2. Select Your Application: From the “My Applications” section, choose the application you are working with.

  3. Access Locations: In the left pane, select “Locations.” This will display a list of all the locations associated with your Square account.

  4. View Location Details: Here, you will see the location names along with their corresponding IDs. You can use these IDs to ensure that you are submitting catalog items to the correct location.

By following these steps, you can verify the location IDs and ensure that your API requests are targeting the intended locations.

Is it possible to search via Location ID on the non-dev dashboard?

Searching in the seller Dashboard isn’t currently available. We’re constantly working to improve our features based on feedback like this, so I’ll be sure to share your request to the API product team. :slight_smile:
