Salesforce Commerce Cloud Connector¶

Summary¶

The Salesforce Commerce Cloud connector establishes access to Salesforce Commerce Cloud.

The Salesforce Commerce Cloud connector provides an interface for creating a Salesforce Commerce Cloud connection, the foundation used for generating instances of Salesforce Commerce Cloud activities. These activities, once configured, interact with Salesforce Commerce Cloud through the connection.

The Salesforce Commerce Cloud connector is accessed from the design component palette's Connections tab (see Design Component Palette).

Connector Overview¶

This connector is used to first configure a Salesforce Commerce Cloud connection. Activity types associated with that connection are then used to create instances of activities that are intended to be used as sources (to provide data in an operation) or targets (to consume data in an operation).

Together, a specific Salesforce Commerce Cloud connection and its activities are referred to as a Salesforce Commerce Cloud endpoint:

Salesforce Commerce Cloud activity types

Search: Based on a specified custom query, retrieves a limited set of Customer, Pricing, or Product object data from Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and is intended to be used as a source in an operation.
Read: Based on a specified set of criteria, retrieves all Checkout, Customer, or Product object data from Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and is intended to be used as a source in an operation.
Get: Based on specified IDs, retrieves all Checkout, Customer, Pricing, or Product object data from Salesforce Commerce Cloud and is intended to be used as a source in an operation.
Create: Creates Customer, Pricing, or Product object data in Salesforce Commerce Cloud and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.
Update: Updates Customer, Pricing, or Product object data in Salesforce Commerce Cloud and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.
Delete: Deletes or cancels Customer, Pricing, or Product object data in Salesforce Commerce Cloud and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.

Note

This connector is a Connector SDK-based connector, which may be referred to by Jitterbit when communicating changes made to connectors built with the Connector SDK.

Prerequisites and Supported API Versions¶

The Salesforce Commerce Cloud connector requires the use of an agent version 10.1 or later. These agent versions automatically download the latest version of the connector when required.

The Salesforce Commerce Cloud connector uses the B2C Commerce API. To interact with it, you need to create an API client for either Admin APIs or Shopper APIs, depending on your needs. Refer to the API documentation for information on the schema nodes and fields.

The minimum required authorization scope is sfcc.products.rw.

Limitations¶

This connector supports the standard objects provided by the B2C Commerce Shopper APIs and Admin APIs. It does not support Custom APIs.

Troubleshooting¶

If you experience issues with the Salesforce Commerce Cloud connector, these troubleshooting steps are recommended:

Click the Test button in the connection configuration to ensure the connection is successful and to ensure the latest version of the connector is downloaded to the agent (unless using the Disable Auto Connector Update organization policy). If the test fails, make sure your credentials have a minimum authorization scope of sfcc.products.rw.
Check the operation logs for any information written during execution of the operation.
Enable operation debug logging (for Cloud Agents or for Private Agents) to generate additional log files and data.
If using Private Agents, you can enable connector verbose logging for this connector using this specific configuration entry of logger name and level:
```
<logger name="org.jitterbit.connector.commercecloud" level="DEBUG"/>
```
If using Private Agents, you can check the agent logs for more information.
