Customer Cart Associations Overview
You can create associations between a customer and one or more carts. After cart associations exist for a customer, the customer can access those carts across any device. You can delete associations as required.
There are two ways to access the customer: with a customer
token and without one.
With a customer
token
These endpoints are for users who authenticated implicitly and require a customer token in the header to access the customer cart associations APIs. For more information, see the Authentication documentation.
Cart creation
Customers create carts and can use any of the carts that they created to check out an order.
You can create a cart id, name, and description for the cart. The cart requires a name. Ensure that the string length is greater than or equal to one. Use any symbol in the name and description. For cart id, ensure that you follow the guidelines for safe characters. For more information about cart id naming requirements, see Safe Characters.
Without a customer
token
These endpoints are for users who use the Client Credentials Token and do not require a Customer token in the header to access the customer cart associations APIs. For more information, see the Authentication documentation.
This user acts as a system administrator and can call any customer cart association operations for any customers and carts.
