Unsuccessful Cart Response (HTTP Response == 200,success: false):

{
    "success": false,
    "data": {
				"...",
        "cart_hash": "W9K",

        "session": {
            "id": "..."

    },
    "msg": ""
}

Cart errors will return an HTTP response code of 200 but success will be false. When encountering errors specific to the cart, the response will include an explanation in data.cart_content.cart_error.

Other Unsuccessful Response (HTTP Response >= 400,success: false):

{
    "success": false,
    "data": {
        "session": {
            "id": "..."
        }
    },
    "msg": "Undefined offset: 1",
    "error_code": 0
}

Non cart errors will return an HTTP response code larger or equal to 400 and success will be false. An error description is provided in the msg when possible.

Retrieving an existing cart

When creating a cart for the first time, note the following:

data.session.id (session ID)
data.cart_hash_jwt (JSON Web Token or JWT).

The session ID can be redeemed at most endpoints and is useful for persisting a user's session between API calls; e.g. a cart or geographic location. The session ID can expire. Each endpoint payload will contain a session ID. If a session ID is passed to an endpoint and it is not expired, the same ID will be returned. If it is expired, a new ID will be returned.

The JWT uniquely identifies a user's cart and does not expire. It can be redeemed at cart endpoints to retrieve or update an existing cart and complete and order. It is optional, but recommended if long term persistence is required.

Updating a cart

By utilizing a session ID or JWT that belongs to an existing cart, we can update the quantity for items in the cart. Read more about a cart's session ID and JWT.

POST https://www.locally.com/headless/api/1.0/cart
API REFERENCE: https://api.locally.com/reference/headlessapicontrollercart_update

We can update the quantity for a specific item in the cart by specifying its ID along with the desired quantity. You can also remove an item by specifying the ID to remove. You can find the item's ID by looking for data.cart_content.cart.items[].id in a successful cart response.

Creating a BOPIS order

BOPIS orders require a reference to the customer's cart along with their email, name, marketing consent, address information and a Stripe setup intent ID.

The Stripe setup intent ID is constructed by retrieving the store's Stripe Connected ID and combining it with the market place secret key. Please contact Locally customer service for more information on obtaining a market place secret key during a custom integration.

All request types require the unique cart identifier. You can find the cart hash by looking for data.cart_hash in a successful cart response. Please review an example of a successful response, if needed.

BOPIS Request:

curl 'https://www.locally.com/headless/api/1.0/cart/order?hash={{CART_HASH}}&first_name={{FIRST_NAME}}&last_name={{LAST_NAME}}&full_name={{FIRST_NAME}}+{{LAST_NAME}}&email={{EMAIL}}&phone={{PHONE}}}&address={{ADDRESS}}&city={{CITY}}&state={{STATE}}&zip={{ZIP}}&country={{COUNTRY_CODE}}&is_opt_in_consent={{CONSENT_RETAILER}}&is_opt_in_consent_brand={{CONSENT_BRAND}}&setup_intent_id={{SETUP_INTENT_ID}}' \
