Shopper Commerce APIs (SCAPI)

This skill guides you through consuming standard Shopper APIs for building headless commerce experiences. Shopper APIs are RESTful endpoints designed for customer-facing storefronts.

Note: For creating custom API endpoints, see b2c-custom-api-development. This skill focuses on consuming standard Shopper APIs.

Scope & grounding

This skill provides quick-start patterns and examples for B2C Commerce Shopper APIs (SCAPI) used in headless storefronts — authentication, checkout, product APIs, and Shopper Context. The examples are version-agnostic and illustrative. Before answering questions that reference specific API versions, authentication flows, quota limits, default scopes, or before emitting code the user will run, confirm current details via b2c docs search/b2c docs read (CLI) or the docs_search/docs_read MCP tools. The official Commerce API documentation at developer.salesforce.com is the authoritative source for API specifications, current authentication patterns, and version-specific behavior.
