Apps and Connections

You can connect new apps and see apps connected to your HubRise Account from the CONNECTIONS page. From this page, you can also view apps activity and logs, and block or disconnect apps.

Available Apps

HubRise is used to connect an ever-growing ecosystem of solutions: EPOS, online ordering, food delivery platforms (including Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat), self ordering solutions, delivery management, delivery services, eMarketing (SMS/emailing), business intelligence, stock management, loyalty systems, and more. The number of compatible applications increases every month.

You can connect all apps available in the HubRise Apps page. If you cannot see an app you need to connect on this page, contact contact@hubrise.com to find out if an integration is planned.

Connect an App

Apps are connected to either a HubRise Account or Location. Connection level depends on the data shared with the app. For example, EPOS or online ordering systems typically connect to Locations, while catalog management solutions may connect to Accounts or Locations.

Some apps can be connected directly from the HubRise back office, while others require configuration from within the app before connection. For complete details, see the app documentation in the HubRise Apps page.

You can connect several instances of the same app to the same HubRise Account or Location; for example, you can connect multiple pages on food delivery platforms to a single Location. Additional fees may apply if you qualify as a Dark Kitchen, see our Pricing page.

To connect an app:

  1. Log in to HubRise from the HubRise Login page.
  2. Click CONNECTIONS on the left navigation panel.
  3. Select View available apps.
  4. Select the Location to connect if the app connects at the location level. You can also leave All locations selected: you will then be prompted to select the location in a later step.
  5. Select the app you want to install. If the app is not on this list, check the app documentation in the HubRise Apps page.
  6. Check instructions for the specific app and click Connect. The app will open in a new browser tab. If not, check your browser for ad-blockers, which might prevent the opening of a new window.
  7. If the app is already connected, the process creates a new connection, and you will need to provide a unique name to identify it.
  8. If the app requires access to a catalog or customer list, click Next, then select the resources to link. If you have only one catalog or customer list, it is selected by default.
  9. Grant the app access to your HubRise data by clicking Allow.

Open An App

Some apps can be accessed from HubRise. If so, you can open the app by clicking on CONNECTIONS and selecting Open for the specific app. The app will open in a new browser tab.

View Connection Logs

Logs are stored for each app that has been connected. You can use logs to understand the communications between systems and detect issues.

To view logs for a connection, select CONNECTIONS > Actions > View logs for the specific app.

Logs record the requests from an app to HubRise. Each request is a transaction between an app and HubRise, such as an order, a new customer registration, or any other communication between an app and HubRise.

Rename a Connection

When you connect several instances of the same app to the same HubRise Account or Location, each connection is identified by its name. Each name must be unique, and only one can be left blank.

To change the name of a connection, select CONNECTIONS > Actions > Rename for the specific app, then enter the new name and click Confirm.

Block or Disconnect an App

HubRise allows you to block or disconnect apps:

  • Blocking an app temporarily prevents it from accessing HubRise API. At any time, you can unblock the app to restore access.

  • Disconnecting an app removes the connection between the app and HubRise. The app is notified of the disconnection, which may result in your account being reset or deleted on the app.

  1. Go to CONNECTIONS.
  2. Find the app you want, then click Actions > Block or Disconnect.
  3. Click Confirm.
