4. Optional: Change the default connection name for the connection to the Lenovo Warranty API In the Connection Name field.
   By default, this field is set to Lenovo Connection.

   Important:

   Don’t change the default URL specified in the Connection URL field.
5. In the Client ID field, enter the Client ID provided by Lenovo.
6. Select Create.

Result

What to do next

After you save the connection and credential records, the Lenovo Warranty API is ready to use. For information about the process for downloading warranty information for hardware assets, see Integration with Lenovo for asset warranty details.

Tip:

No connection test is available for the Lenovo Warranty API. To confirm that the connection is working, check the Asset Job Log [asset_job_log] table after the warranty download job runs. If the credentials are incorrect or the connection fails, the job runs but doesn't download warranty information, and logs the details for each run.
