Setting up the Billing Integration is an essential step in provisioning PeakCommerce Production and Sandbox tenants. Zuora is one of the billing systems that PeakCommerce can integrate with.

Follow the steps below to integrate the PeakCommerce platform with Salesforce.

Log in to Zuora with an admin account from the company in order to create an API Only user at the platform level. An API role must already be created. For more information on creating an API role, and setting up a new API user, view the Zuora article: Create an API User.

Click on the username in the top right corner and navigate to Setting > Administration > Manage Users. Click “add single-user” to start filling out the basic information. See the example below.

This page requires basic information to create the user. A description of each field can be found below in the order they appear on the New User page.

Client Id and Client Secret

The Client ID and Client Secret are created by creating an OAuth client on the API user in Zuora. This is used to authenticate to the Zuora Rest API. To create an OAuth pull up the new API user. Underneath the user's profile Basic Information there is a section for OAuth Clients. See the example below. 

In the OAuth Clients section, enter a name for the OAuth client and hit create at the bottom of the page. Zuora will display a one-time popup with the Client Id and Client Secret. This is the only time you will see these fields however, the Client Id and Secret can be regenerated if needed. Copy the Id and Secret and insert them into the fields in PeakCommerce.

After all these steps have been completed, the integration can be tested in PeakCommerce by adding a new product.

Navigate to Subscribe > Segments > Actions > View (on an existing segment) > Add Product.

When opening adding a new product, the products and rate plans from Zuora should appear in dropdown lists to choose from for the Product and Product Rate Plan fields.
