Enlighten POS Setup
1. Log into Enlighten to complete the necessary configuration steps
- Be sure that you have products inside your account either manually or through the use of any of our POS integrations.
2. Menu Feeds
- Use an existing menu feed configured by Enlighten or create a new one.
- If needed, create additional feed groups and map them to the appropriate filter criteria.
- Once your feed groups are all configured, be sure to assign the Leafly Category applicable to each group of products. If no category is specified, you can still configure these inside of the leafly platform. Note: be aware that modifying any existing menu feeds beyond the leafly category can result in undesired behavior of your Enlighten TV Menus.
3. Settings > Integrations
- Under Integration Settings, add a new integration “Leafly Menu Push”.
- You’ll need to obtain the API Key from the Leafly Settings page under the POS Tab after you’ve added the Enlighten integration in Leafly.
- Once you have entered the API Key, choose the menu feed you wish to power your Leafly Menus and hit “Verify”. Once the verification succeeds you can save.
Leafly Configuration (post-POS sync)
Once you have successfully synced your Enlighten menu with Leafly, you can configure the integration and override menu data in Leafly Biz.
These changes will persist in your Leafly menu unless you disconnect and then reconnect your POS and resync your POS menu data.

Default Item Status
On the POS Settings page, automatically set new and restocked items to either active or inactive by default. Items automatically set to an inactive status will need to manually be set to active before being visible on online menus.
- Items set to “Active” will show up on all online menus and be set to “Available for Pick-Up/Delivery” if your store participates in any of Leafly’s order ahead programs.
- Items set to “Inactive” will be hidden from all online menus and will no longer be “Available for Pick-Up/Delivery” if your store participates in any of Leafly’s order ahead programs.
Category Mapping

We currently support the following categories → Accessory, Seeds, Clone, Flower, Edible, PreRoll, Concentrate, Cartridge, Topical, Other.

Inventory Availability Rules

FAQs (prior to syncing, please review)
If I have an existing menu in Leafly, do I need to save it prior to syncing my Enlighten menu?
-
No. Leafly will automatically save a copy of the menu that you maintained before connecting your menu integration. If you encounter any issues with the data that is pulled in from your menu source, you can quickly revert back by selecting “Disconnect and restore pre-POS connected menu data” when disconnecting the integration and reverting the menu back to its original state. To learn how to disconnect your menu integration, we advise following the instructions in this article: How do I disconnect my point of sale?
Once I make a change in Enlighten, how soon will I see the changes on Leafly’s menu?
-
Enlighten syncs your full menu upon initial activation of the menu integration. Enlighten will then send menu and inventory changes to Leafly every 15 - 30 minutes as they occur throughout the business day while the menu integration is active in both systems. You can also manually sync changes to Leafly.
Can I manually update fields on Leafly Biz that are missing?
-
With this integration, when you are synced, you can:
-
manually select staff picks
-
override status of items received from Enlighten (active/inactive)
-
set inventory thresholds at a global and category level
-
override your menu items with your own product photography, descriptions, potency values and more
-
-
If you disconnect and choose to retain data from your last POS sync, any overrides made in Leafly Biz will remain unless a menu integration is reconnected and resynced to Leafly.
-
If you disconnect and choose to restore pre-POS connected menu data, any overrides made in Leafly Biz will not remain and will be deleted.
Do products on the menu have sales tax associated?
-
If you have assigned the desired tax rates to the menu feed in your Enlighten POS, your menu in Leafly will be inclusive of desired taxes. This setting is available in your POS in “Menu Feeds > Tax Settings > Inclusive Tax Calculation” where you can assign the desired tax rates to the feed group. Additionally, Leafly estimated taxes can be enabled and included in the checkout process if Leafly Pickup is active for online ordering.
Can I regenerate my Leafly API key?
-

Can I deactivate the menu sync?
