Enable METRC Sync with Flourish Software
Set up two-way METRC integration with Flourish to sync cultivation, manufacturing, distribution, and retail data in real time while maintaining cannabis compliance.
METRC Integration with Flourish Software
Flourish provides a comprehensive integration with METRC, the state-mandated track-and-trace system for cannabis compliance. This integration supports cultivation, manufacturing, distribution, and retail operations.
Overview
Flourish performs two-way data synchronization with METRC:
- Reverse Sync: Automatically imports your historical and active METRC data into Flourish.
- Forward Sync: Sends updates from Flourish to METRC in real time.
- Full Sync: Runs automatically each night and can be triggered manually at any time.
Flourish also queues outbound messages when METRC is down and resubmits them once service is restored.
Requirements
To enable METRC integration, you will need:
- Your State License Number
- Facility API Key
- User API Key(s) for each user needing access
Supported Data Sets
Flourish can sync the following data with METRC:
Cultivation
- Plants
- Harvests
- Packages
- Rooms
- Strains
- Items
Manufacturing & Distribution
- Packages
- Items
- Strains

Getting Started with METRC + Flourish
If you’re not yet live with METRC, Flourish offers a streamlined onboarding process:
- Implement and start using Flourish for your operation type (Cultivation, Manufacturing, Distribution, Retail, or all).
- Complete METRC training.
- Provide Flourish with:
- State License Number
- API Key(s) for each user
- Your plant and package tag numbers
- Perform a full inventory count in Flourish to ensure accuracy.
- Apply METRC tags to your inventory in Flourish.
- Flourish will then sync the following to METRC:
- Grow Rooms (clone, veg, flowering, drying)
- Strains
- Plants
- Items (from the Flourish Item Master)
- Destinations (address info must be manually updated in Flourish)
Once this process is complete, you’ll be live and fully integrated with METRC.
Managing Changes in METRC
Certain actions must still be completed directly in METRC due to API limitations. These include:
- Updating a plant’s strain before harvest
- Changing the item of a package
- Creating lab samples and submitting to labs (in some states)
Refer to METRC’s official FAQ for guidance on making these corrections in the METRC system.
Flourish continuously monitors METRC updates and enhances the integration to maintain full compliance.
