Stores

Stores let you model the context your customers shop in.

Stores can be used to model, for example, physical retail locations, brand stores, or regions. They allow to define what subset of resources within a project is available in the context of a store.

Currently, a Store can hold Carts, Orders, Shopping Lists, Customers, and Products. For managing the availability of product assortments for your store, use Product Selections. Additional settings like languages or channels for inventory and pricing can be defined in the Store and used to query Product Projections that only contain localized values, inventory data and Prices that are suitable for the Store.

Permissions can be granted for particular Stores only. For example, with an OAuth Scope like manage_orders:acme-inc:luxury-brand, an API Client can only access Carts and Orders inside the luxury-brand Store, but not within the budget-brand Store. For more information, see the Helpers section.

Helpers in the HTTP and GraphQL APIs

commercetools Commerce provides some helper methods for accessing resources within a specified Store.

In-Store representations

The In Store methods provide access to resources projected to the specified Store. Store-projected representations are supported for

Resources in Store	API methods
Product Projections	Get
Carts	Get, Query, Create, Replicate, Update, Delete
My Carts	Get, Get active Cart, Query, Create, Update, Delete
Orders	Get by ID, Query, Create from Cart, Update by ID, Delete by ID Get by OrderNumber, Update by OrderNumber, Delete by OrderNumber
My Orders	Get by ID, Query, Create from Cart
Shopping Lists	Get, Query, Create, Update, Delete
My Shopping Lists	Get, Query, Create, Update, Delete

To access to those endpoints your API Client requires store-related scopes, such as manage_orders:{project-key}:{store-key}.

Products available in Store

Store's active Product Selection(s) form its assortment. Or, in other words, a Product is considered available in a Store if it is:

not excluded by any of that Store's active Product Selection with IndividualExclusion ProductSelectionMode.
included in at least one of that Store's active Product Selections with Individual ProductSelectionMode.

When a Product is part of a Store's active Product Selection and has associated Variant Selection, its In-Store representation is projected such that only selected Product Variants are present.

When a Store has two, or more, active Product Selection(s) that contain the same Product but have different Variant Selections, Product's In-Store representation is resolved in following manner:

All Product Variants that are part of a Variant Exclusion across Product Selections are discarded.
All Product Variants that are part of a Variant Selection of type IncludeOnly across Product Selections are kept, with the exception of ones that are part of a Variant Selection of type IncludeAllExcept.

If Product's Variant Selection excludes all of the Product's Variants or if the Product is assigned to a Product Selection with mode IndividualExclusion without specifying any Variant Exclusion, the Product is considered as absent in the Store.

The Store configuration is cached up to one minute as it is not expected to change frequently. Take that delay into account when fetching any projected Product in the Store.

GraphQL query fields

The top-level fields inStore and inStores are available to only query resources belonging to specified Stores. For example, the following query only returns IDs of Carts created in the luxury-brand Store, and the total field counts only Carts within that Store:

query {
  inStore(key: "luxury-brand") {
    carts {
      results {
        id
      }
      total
    }
  }
}

Similarly, inStores(keys: ["luxury-brand", "budget-brand"]) performs the queries only within these two Stores.

Both can either be used with regular OAuth permissions (for example manage_orders:project-key) or with the store-based OAuth permissions (for example manage_orders:project-key:store-key). For the inStores example, the OAuth scope must contain manage_orders:project-key:luxury-brand or manage_orders:project-key:budget-brand, else an insufficient_scope error is returned.

GraphQL mutations

Mutations on Carts, Orders, and Customers have an optional argument called storeKey. In the following example, the Cart is created in the Store luxury-brand:

mutation {
  createCart(draft: { currency: "USD" }, storeKey: "luxury-brand") {
    id
  }
}

The following update to the Cart is only performed if the Cart is in the Store luxury-brand:

mutation {
  updateCart(
    id: "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000"
    version: 1
    actions: [{ addLineItem: { sku: "..." } }]
    storeKey: "luxury-brand"
  ) {
    id
  }
}

This can either be used with regular OAuth permissions (for example manage_orders:project-key) or with the store-based OAuth permissions (for example manage_orders:project-key:store-key).
