Order processing with Inventory Management
Step 7. Create a cart and add products to it
Next, we’ll create a cart and add the items that we modified in Step 5. Reassign products to custom sources.
Create a cart
The call to create a cart and add items must contain the customer’s authorization token in the authorization header.
Endpoint:
POST <host>/rest/us/V1/carts/mine
Scope:
us
store view
Headers:
Content-Type
: application/json
Authorization
: Bearer <customer_token>
Payload:
None
Response:
The response is the quoteId
: 3
Check for product availability
In Step 5. Reassign products to custom sources, we defined the quantities of products 24-WB01
and 24-WB03
for the US source as follows:
Product | Baltimore Warehouse | Austin Warehouse | Reno Warehouse |
---|---|---|---|
24-WB01 |
35 | 10 | 25 |
24-WB03 |
19 | 0 | 42 |
Later in this step, we’ll order 20 24-WB01
items and 50 24-WB03
items. We can see that we have enough salable items for both products, but let’s check programmatically.
Check for product 24-WB01
The get-product-salable-quantity
endpoint indicates how many items are available for sale for the specified product (24-WB01) and source (2).
Endpoint:
GET <host>/rest/us/V1/inventory/get-product-salable-quantity/24-WB01/2
Scope:
us
store view
Headers:
Content-Type
: application/json
Authorization
: Bearer <admin_token>
Payload:
Not applicable
Response:
70
Check for product 24-WB03
Use the same endpoint to check the quantity available for product 24-WB03
.
Endpoint:
GET <host>/rest/us/V1/inventory/get-product-salable-quantity/24-WB03/2
Scope:
us
store view
Headers:
Content-Type
: application/json
Authorization
: Bearer <admin_token>
Payload:

Response:

Add items to the cart
We have ensured that we have enough physical products in stock to fulfill the potential order.
Add the first simple product
In this call, we’ll add 20 24-WB01
items. This portion of the order can be fulfilled from the Baltimore or Reno warehouse.
