SAP Commerce Cloud
Bring product data from directly into your components in Canvas with the SAP Commerce Cloud integration.
Uniform Mesh will fetch the product data, cache it, and deliver it along with the rest of the page content with the performance, reliability, and elastic scalability of an enterprise CDN.
This integration uses OCC V2 API to retrieve product data from your Commerce Cloud instance.
Before you start
You must have the following available to complete this setup:
- An OCC V2 endpoint configured for SAP Commerce Cloud and available to be called externally by Uniform CDN infrastructure.
Prerequisites
You must have access to a Uniform team with the ability to create new projects. If you are an active customer or a partner, please get in touch with your Uniform team administrator colleague and ask for an invite.
If you are not sure or your company does not have a Uniform team, you can request a sandbox here.
