Sync your store information data with Yext

Locally is excited to feature a sync with Yext, a popular store listings management platform. 

When you activate this integration, any edits you make to certain store details in Yext will automatically update your Locally listing in real-time.

When you enable this integration, your Yext profile will override the following on Locally:

  • Store name and address details
  • Store Hours: regular and special hours
  • Geo-coordinates (latitude and longitude) 
  • Social URLs: Facebook, Instagram and Twitter

Use Yext? To enable this for your company, contact support@locally.com.

After working with our support team to set up the connection, there is a final step that must be completed on your end. In order to complete the real-time Yext connection with Locally, please follow the instructions below. 

1. Login to the developer console in Yext and select the app.


2. Select "Webhooks"


3. Click "add a webhook"


4. Select "Entities" then "Next"

5. Add the web hook URL https://lcly.ngrok.io/yext/webhook in the URL field



6. Add URL and click "Send Test Message"

Test message should come back with something similar to the following:

{"Status":"Warning","StatusReason":"Unable to find store for entity id: 334"}

or

{"Status":"Success","StatusReason":""}

Either of these indicates that the webhook is hitting the correct spot and it is sending back a response. 

7. Select “Finish and Add”.
