Find Your METRC License Numbers and API Key

In order for Flourish to integrate with METRC, we need two key pieces of information. Flourish has a 1 to 1 relationship for Metrc facilities and Flourish facilities. We will need to match each metrc facility to a Flourish facility.

  1. METRC API Key.
  2. METRC License Number.

Generate your METRC API Key

METRC API keys are user-specific. For the integration, we’ll use the STS Admin API key across all facilities, paired with the correct license number for each location.

  1. How to generate your API key:
    Important Note: Once you've generated your API key once, there is no need to regenerate again.
    1. Log in to METRC.
    2. Open your username drop-down in the top right corner. Select API Keys.
    3. Follow the prompts to generate your API key. Copy this key to your clipboard to paste later.
If you generate a new API key, please email the new key to support@flourishsoftware.com so your Metrc integration continues syncing without interruption.

Adding employees after integration starts

After new employees are added in METRC, they should:

  1. Log in to METRC
  2. Generate their own API key
  3. Add their API key into Flourish
    1. This ensures that any actions taken in Flourish sync to METRC under the correct employee/user.

If your Metrc API key is ever mistakenly regenerated

Please update it in Flourish right away. Keeping this current ensures the nightly METRC reverse sync continues updating Flourish without any interruption.

  1. Go to Manage Settings → Users → Edit User → Edit Compliance Credentials
  2. Paste the new key
  3. Click Validate → Proceed → Save

You can also send the new key to Support and we’ll update it for you.

Find Your METRC License Number(s)

METRC license numbers are slightly different from your OCM-issued license number. If you have multiple licenses or locations, you’ll typically see suffixes like: -D1, -P1, -DX1, -C1, -C2, etc. — one per facility type/location.

To find and view your Metrc license numbers:

  1. Log into Metrc.
  2. In the upper-right corner, use the Facilities drop-down to view each licensed location.
  3. Toggle into each facility and go to: Admin → Addresses.
  4. Confirm the facility address matches each facility 'location' you expect.

Once you share those license numbers, Flourish will ensure each Flourish facility is mapped to the correct METRC facility (address/location) and license number.

Your metrc licenses may look similar to these examples below:

This is what you will use to send to the Flourish team, to match your Flourish facilities and physical addresses for the NYS metrc integration.

*Note - Microbusinesses in NY will receive a separate facility for EACH approved Activity under the license, and each physical location.
