B2C Code Skill

Use the b2c CLI to deploy and manage code versions on Salesforce B2C Commerce instances.

Tip: If b2c is not installed globally, use npx @salesforce/b2c-cli instead (e.g., npx @salesforce/b2c-cli code deploy).

Examples

Deploy Cartridges

# deploy all cartridges from current directory
b2c code deploy

# deploy cartridges from a specific directory
b2c code deploy ./my-cartridges

# deploy to a specific server and code version
b2c code deploy --server my-sandbox.demandware.net --code-version v1

# deploy and reload (re-activate) the code version
b2c code deploy --reload

# delete existing cartridges before upload and reload
b2c code deploy --delete --reload

# deploy only specific cartridges
b2c code deploy -c app_storefront_base -c plugin_applepay

# exclude specific cartridges from deployment
b2c code deploy -x test_cartridge

Watch for Changes

# watch cartridges and upload changes automatically
b2c code watch

# watch a specific directory
b2c code watch ./my-cartridges

# watch with specific server and code version
b2c code watch --server my-sandbox.demandware.net --code-version v1

# watch only specific cartridges
b2c code watch -c app_storefront_base

# watch excluding specific cartridges
b2c code watch -x test_cartridge

List Code Versions

# list code versions on the instance
b2c code list

# list with JSON output
b2c code list --json

Activate Code Version

# activate a code version
b2c code activate <version-name>

# reload (re-activate) the current code version
b2c code activate --reload

Note: Activating a code version triggers Custom API endpoint registration. If you've added or modified Custom APIs, use --reload with deploy or activate to register them. Check registration status with the b2c-cli:b2c-scapi-custom skill.

Delete Code Version

# delete a code version
b2c code delete <version-name>
