B2C Commerce APIs and integrations
As is true with any integration scenario, successfully integrating B2C Commerce into the larger B2C Solution Architecture is largely a function of understanding the available integration options. It does little good to understand the underlying data model if you don’t know how to access it from another system!
Unlike the Lightning Platform, B2C Commerce implementations still traditionally make heavy use of file-based integrations for data feeds, though API options are available. We’ll cover both file-based integrations and API options in the following sections.
