How To Use Api

Store Builder Questions
1

Wasn’t sure where to ask this question.



Can anyone point me to the right place to learn how to use and implement cs-cart APIs from a beginner’s stand-point?



I know nothing about APIs, but I’d love to learn and use it. From what I gather, I can display admin information (such as sales) on my own personal website using CS-Cart APIs. Is this correct?



I would love to get any website/documentation.



Thanks!

Yes, you can get common information for the list of orders and get detailed information about specific order. And get info about many other objects such as:


  • Categories
  • Orders
  • Payment Methods
  • Product Features
  • Products
  • Settings
  • Shipments
  • Shipping Methods
  • Statuses
  • Stores
  • Taxes
  • Users
