Configuration

Enable the Sharlic Integration

  1. Log in to the Wasabi Account Control Manager (WACM) console and navigate to the Integrations tab.

  1. Locate the Sharlic integration and click Enable.

  1. Click on Enable.

  1. WACM will generate an API Key and associate it with a Key Name.

Note: Remember to store this key as you will only be able to download and save it once.

Connect to Wasabi in Sharlic

  1. Log in to Sharlic with your administrator credentials and navigate to the Verified Partners tab.

  2. Click on Wasabi.

  1. Enter the Key Name and API Key generated from your WACM Integration.

  2. Click Connect.

Select Accounts to Import

After successfully connecting your Wasabi account, Sharlic will display a list of available channels and sub-accounts based on the account type you connected:

  • If you connected a control account, you’ll see all channel accounts and any sub-accounts directly linked to it.

  • If you connected a channel account, you’ll only see the sub-accounts under that channel.

Use the checkboxes to select which accounts to import, then click + Add selected to proceed.

Note: To select all accounts, click the upper left check box.

Configure Subscriptions and Billing Rules

1. For each selected account:

  • Assign it to an existing or new customer in Sharlic.

  • Select or create an article that defines the pricing logic.

  • Choose a billing frequency (for example, monthly, quarterly, yearly).

  1. When creating a customer, Sharlic will import billing information from WACM if it has already been entered.

    If not, simply populate all required fields and click Save.

  1. Articles offer total flexibility in how you bill your customers by letting you change the base values Sharlic uses to generate invoices.

  • Pay-as-you-go: Charge per TB stored per month.

  • Quota-based: Set a base quota with overage pricing.

  • Prepaid plans: Offer annual storage at a fixed price by setting a different Term.

Note: The article currency is locked to the selected customer's currency, and the dropdown menus will only show existing articles in that currency.

  1. By clicking Import, Sharlic will then link the account to a license, nested within a subscription.

Monitor and Manage Subscriptions

1. Go to the Subscriptions tab in Sharlic to view all imported subscriptions.

  1. Each subscription displays the following.

  • Customer name

  • Billing model

  • Sales partners

  • Next invoice date

  • Actions such as detailed notifications for each license.

Let Sharlic Handle the Billing

Sharlic will now automatically do the following.

  • Track storage usage from Wasabi using the same metrics that Wasabi bills you with.

  • Generate customer invoices on your chosen billing schedule.

  • Apply your selected pricing model for each customer.

  • Send invoices to your customers via email or integrated billing platforms (depending on your Sharlic configuration).

Note: You remain in full control of pricing and invoicing. Sharlic simply automates what would otherwise be manual and error-prone work.
