# Manual Configuration
Ensure that the following fields are filled out: "BTCPay Url," "API Key," "BTCPay Store ID," and "WebHook Secret."
To create the BTCPay API key, read this.
- Note: If you want to use the Refund feature, you must also add the "Create non-approved pull payments" permission. After a refund, an order note is created where you can copy the pull payments link and send to your customer. The customer can request the refund on that page.
To create the BTCPay WebHook, read this and use the default secret code generated by BTCPay.
