Upgraded iTero Integration - How to upgrade to the new iTero API Integration (iTero v2)

Upgraded iTero Integration - How to upgrade to the new iTero API Integration (iTero v2)

Introduction


In Fall 2023 EasyRx upgraded the EasyRx -iTero integration to support the latest iTero Integration API platform.   We refer to the upgraded integration as iTero v2.

Benefits to the upgraded integration include:

-More consistent attachment speeds
-More consistent performance; the integration will better handle peak access requests 
-Improved communication and support

The iTero v2 integration will replace the current iTero v1 integration. You'll need to upgrade to the iTero v2 integration in the future. To avoid a disruption of the integration, we recommend that you upgrade at your convenience now. 

Upgrading to the iTero v2 integration is a two - step process.

1. The upgraded iTero v2 integration needs to be enabled on all your myitero.com accounts 
2. You need to enable the iTero v2 integration on the 3rd Party Integration page

We've outlined each step of the upgrade below.    As always, please contact EasyRx Support with any questions or issues. 

Step 1: Enable the iTero v2 integration at www.myitero.com

The new integration require upgraded iTero v2 integration is enabled on all your accounts at  www.myitero.com.  Contact EasyRx Support at support@easyrxcloud.com or call us 888.340.4751 and provide all your iTero Office IDs.  EasyRx Support will work with iTero support to enable the integration on your account(s).  This will take a couple of days.  


Research ALL Office IDs in your account(s) that you use to receive scans - it is possible and common for a practice to have multiple iTero Accounts/Office IDs.
Your Office ID(s) can be found in your MyiTero account under My Scanners:



Step 3.  Enable the iTero v2 integration in your EasyRx account 

After the EasyRx Support team works with iTero Support to enable the integration, follow these instructions to enable the iTero v2 integration in EasyRx 

  1. Log in as an Admin to your EasyRx account.
  2. In the top right-hand corner of the screen, you should see your practice name in blue. Click on your practice name.
  3. In the dropdown menu, click on "Account Settings."
  4. On the screen's left side, click "3rd Party Integrations."
  5. In the "iTero Credentials" section, click "Add."
  6. You will be redirected to authenticate using your iTero credentials. Follow the prompts to complete the authentication process.
  7. Pair your office or offices to this EasyRx account once authenticated. This will allow you to see all the scans from those offices in the iTero recent scans dashboard in EasyRx.
  8. To pair your office, click "Pair Office" next to the one you want to pair.




Step 4: Log into your EasyRx account as an Admin > go to Account Settings > 3rd Party Integrations to complete the integration setup, shown below.

Integrating your iTero account to your EasyRx Account 




(From 3rd Party Integrations page):


You will be redirected to this page, where you will input your iTero credentials; once complete, you will return to the 3rd Party Integrations page.


Example of the pairing page


Once all offices are paired, you can view the iTero recent scans for each paired office in the iTero - Recent Scans Dashboard in EasyRx.




You will notice there is a "version" column, that will display "v1" or "v2". If you see "v1", this indicates that these scans were attached using the original V1 integration - which means not all iTero Accounts/Office IDs were configured in your V2 setup. You will need to research the iTero Account/Office IDs for those scans and get those entered and paired through the 3rd Party Integrations page. 
The v1 scans will continue to attach for a couple of weeks, giving you time to research the myitero.com accounts not linked and switch these accounts to v2

Disabling the v1 Integration 
It is recommended after enabling the v2 integration, to remove the v1 integration.  To do so, Go to Account Settings - 3rd Party integration and delete the logins:



NOTE:  V1 integrations will be automatically removed the month after the v2 integration is enabled.

If you have any questions or issues during this process, please don't hesitate to contact our support team for help.

Once you have upgraded to iTero v2, the integration will work like it always has worked.  The only change is how EasyRx is attaching the iTero scans "behind the scenes."

Using the iTero integration

Create an Rx From EasyRx iTero - Recent Scans Dashboard > locate scan > Click Create Rx (righthand side)

Once the scan is synced to the dashboard, you can easily create a new prescription for the patient by clicking on the "Create Rx" button on the right-hand side. This will automatically link the STL scans to the new prescription, so you don't have to worry about attaching them manually.
