You can use the Wholesaler API to integrate the third-party systems with the Wholesaler FMD application.


The Wholesaler API uses the Representational State Transfer (REST) standard to interact with other systems.


The Wholesaler API is an extension of the Wholesaler FMD application of Movilitas.Cloud and enables you to send requests from external systems to the application.


This article describes how to send a Bulk Undo Sample request to Movilitas.Cloud using the Wholesaler API.


Movilitas.Cloud sends this request to the National Medicines Verification System (NMVS) assigned to the warehouse to complete the action on the packs included in the request.


To learn more about the available parameters of this request, log in to Movilitas.Cloud, open the tenant, select Channels, and select the Wholesaler API Documentation next to the shopfloor channel with the Wholesaler API source that you created.


API Tool to Use


In this document, we provide examples by using the cURL command-line tool. You can use any API tool to perform the API requests, for example, Postman or Katalon Studio. 


Before You Begin


1. You must enable the Wholesaler FMD application in the Admin UI.

2. You must create an API key and secret. 

3. You must create a shopfloor channel with the Wholesaler API source. You will need the channel key for your requests.

4. You must configure the Wholesaler FMD application and the channel required to connect to NMVS.

5. You must have the authentication token to send requests over API. Select one of the following ways:

  • Apply a dynamic token. Send an authentication request over the Authentication API. For more information about the Authentication API, open the Tenant Dashboard in Movilitas.Cloud, select API keys, and choose Authentication API Documentation. Also, see Authentication Request.
  • Apply a static token. Generate a static token for your previously created API key.


For more information, see Configuring the Movilitas.Cloud APIs.
