Locations

locations_api = client.locations

Class Name

LocationsApi

Methods

List Locations

Provides details about all of the seller's locations, including those with an inactive status. Locations are listed alphabetically by name.

def list_locations

Response Type

This method returns a ApiResponse instance. The data property in this instance returns the response data which is of type List Locations Response Hash.

Example Usage

result = locations_api.list_locations

if result.success?
  puts result.data
elsif result.error?
  warn result.errors
end

Create Location

Creates a location. Creating new locations allows for separate configuration of receipt layouts, item prices, and sales reports. Developers can use locations to separate sales activity through applications that integrate with Square from sales activity elsewhere in a seller's account. Locations created programmatically with the Locations API last forever and are visible to the seller for their own management. Therefore, ensure that each location has a sensible and unique name.
