It has been decided to remove the possibility for our users to create
their own IAP services.
This decision was motivated by the fact that, in the 5 years of
existence of IAP, very few non-Odoo services have been created and
actively used by our customers.

In-App Purchase (IAP)
|
||
=====================
|
||
|
||
In-App Purchases (IAP) gives access to additional services through Odoo. For instance, it allows you
|
||
to send SMS Text Messages or to send Invoices by post directly from my database.

||
Buying Credits
|
||
==============
|
||
|
||
Each IAP Service relies on prepaid credits to work and has its own pricing. To consult my current
|
||
balance or to recharge my account, go to :menuselection:`Settings --> Odoo IAP --> View my
|
||
Services`.

|
||
.. tip::
|
||
If I am on Odoo Online and have the Enterprise version, I benefit from free credits to test our
|
||
IAP features.
|
||
|
||
IAP accounts
|
||
============
|
||
|
||
Credits to use IAP services are stored on IAP accounts, which are specific to each service.
|
||
By default, IAP accounts are common to all companies, but can be restricted to specific
|
||
ones. Activate the :ref:`developer mode <developer-mode>`, then go to :menuselection:`Technical
|
||
Settings --> IAP Account`.

|
||
|
||
.. tip::
|
||
An IAP account can be disabled by appending `+disabled` to its token.
|
||
Reverting this change will re-enable the account.

IAP Portal
|
||
==========
|
||
|
||
The IAP Portal is a platform regrouping my IAP Services. It is accessible from
|
||
:menuselection:`Settings app --> Odoo IAP --> View my Services`. From there, I can view my current
|
||
balance, recharge my credits, review my consumption and set a reminder to when credits are low.
|
||

|
||
|
||
Get notified when credits are low
|
||
=================================
|
||
|
||
To be notified when it’s time to recharge my credits, I’ll go to my IAP Portal through
|
||
:menuselection:`Settings app --> Odoo IAP --> View my Services`, unfold a service and mark the
|
||
Receive threshold warning option. Then, I’ll provide a minimum amount of credits and email
|
||
addresses. Now, every time that the limit is reached, an automatic reminder will be sent to by
|
||
email!

IAP services available
|
||
======================
|
||
|
||
Different services are available depending on the hosting type of your Database:
|
||
|
||
- *Odoo Online*: only the IAP services provided by Odoo can be used (i.e. the SMS, Snailmail,
|
||
Reveal and Partner Autocomplete features);
|
||
- *Odoo.sh and Odoo Enterprise (on-premise)*: both the services provided by Odoo and by third-party
|
||
apps can be used.
