How to connect
SourceMedium connects to Judge.me with an API token that you copy from Judge.me and paste into SourceMedium.You connect data sources yourself in SourceMedium. Sign in to your SourceMedium account, open your store, then in the Data sources section click Connect data source and choose the platform. You need an Editor or Admin role on the store. If you have view-only access, ask an admin or editor on your team to connect it.Once it is connected, what happens next covers first-sync timing and what each connection status means.
1
Copy your API token from Judge.me
In your Judge.me admin, go to Settings → Integrations and click View API tokens. Copy the Private API Token. See Judge.me’s guide: Using the Judge.me API.Judge.me’s private token carries read and write access and has no read-only option, so treat it with extra care. SourceMedium only reads with it.
2
Add the token in SourceMedium
Find Judge.me in the connector picker and click Connect. Paste the API token and click Connect.
3
Confirm it is connected
SourceMedium checks the token with Judge.me before saving it, so a wrong token is rejected on the spot. The connection reads Awaiting first data until the first sync lands, then Connected.
SourceMedium only ever reads from your connected platforms. It does not create, change, or delete anything, so create the key with read-only access wherever the platform offers it. Treat it like a password: keep it confidential and avoid sharing it over email or in spreadsheets. If the credential is rotated or revoked, follow this guide’s connection method to update SourceMedium.
