Change history

eSeller Cloud change history

2/10/2023 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.6 SB4_Rel, build 64

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

New features

The 52eSELLER SUITE API’s (V2 & V3) has been improved and extended considerably. Examples of API V3 Improvements introduced:

EB-512 V3 Order API endpoints that works on anonymous user using OrderGuid as primary key.
EB-510 V3 API Online Payment handover - added flag to payment selection requisite to enable implementors to see if checkout supports Browser(headless)/SDK approach + Code cleanup.
EB-423 Create basket api rollbackcheckout endpoint + modified checkout request and response bodies to simplify usage and enable SDK usage.
EB-474 V3/productlocations?itemKeys={itemKeys} to include detailed inventory information.
EB-475 V3/products?itemKeys={itemKeys} and v3/products?extItemKeys={extItemKeys} to include detailed inventory information as an option.

Also the Shop admin has extended with some new functionality:

EB-498 Shop admin capable of showing and editing product non-variant inventory count on location level — Preparation for 2.7 release.
EB-453 Shop admin capable of showing and editing product variant inventory count on location level — Preparation for 2.7 release.
EB-471 In Shop admin a new page shows whether a shop is reachable and served by eseller, or if it is placed elsewhere. Availability status is shown as ‘traffic lights’: Green = eseller shop, Yellow = Available but not in eseller, Red= Not an eseller shop. New page is found here: Home >> Base setup >> General information >> Host headers.

Also a few improvements made on the shop side:

EB-416 A shop login customer, is now able to change user name, so that user can use e-mail address as the user name, and change e-mail address - hence username - whenever user wants to.
EB-543 Performance issue on productlist.asmx api call for "variants" - Fixed. general optimization implemented for getting SEO Menu. General Optimization of productlists.

Finally release includes quite a few bug fixes.

12/5/2023 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.5 SB4_Rel, build 25

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

New features

This release introduces a Netaxept as newest payment solution from Nets. Netaxept is an advanced replacement for the D2 payment solution (also known as DIBS D2 or DIBS D2 FlexWin) that was previously supported by 52eSELLER SUITE.

Also the 52eSELLER SUITE API’s (V2 & V3) has been improved and extended considerably.

EB-34 + EB-114 Data grooming configuration in backend. Making it possible for shop owners to be able to set thresholds for when old basket and order informations should be removed, hence shop owners can control when old data is removed. (Default for order is 50 years, default for basket is 3 years).
EB-222 Allow for prefix in barcode generator. Making it possible for shop owners to specify a prefix when generating barcodes, so shop owner can adapt prepend correct id. The change applies to barcode types: EAN13 (13 characters fixed length), EAN8 (8 characters fixed length), CODE11, INERTERLEAVED25, MSI1 and UPCA (12 characters fixed length).
EB-237 Price validity on product lists. Date validity (range) to be delivered in json responses, to be used by frontend developers when showing prices in shopfront. In order obey prescribed laws showing validity time for certain sales prices, especially campaign prices.
EB-64 Enable emergency shopfront disabling of products. This feature makes it possible to remove items from shopfront - even if they are integrated - in a fast and convenient way. In some cases it is necessary to block out items that for one reason or the other are misconfigured in a way that negativly impacts business. This feature is needed because sometimes an integration contains f.inst. bad pricing - due to the queueing nature of integrations it can take long time to correct this kind of data and hence it makes sense to be able to block out such items manually, until data gets corrected. The emergency lock out is completely manual, i.e. it can only be switched on in administration, and it can only be switched off again in the administration. The integration can’t alter this setting.
EB-248 When creating Coupons/Vouchers in webadmin, It is now possible to select or deselect products as valid or not valid for Coupons created. This makes it possible to only include some products as valid for a coupon or to exclude only some products as not valid for a coupon.
EB-164 Vat reverse charge option (calculation type) made visible in admin. It is now possible to see whether reverse charge option on vat, is set up on an account in webadmin: Home>>Base setup>>Company info>>VAT>>VAT setup
EB-244 [Ticket#2022070810000351] Changed solution for creating and maintaining favorites list in legacy solution. To prevent customers loosing their favorites in speciel cases in shops where salespersons are able to select customers and create/ maintain customers favorites list.

Bug fixes

EB-159 + EB-242 Giftcard VAT incorrect amount when redeeming and also other incorrect calculations related to paying partly or fully using Gift card(s) fixed.
EB-174 Rescaled image - update when original changes – improvements. Customer experiences problems when the upload new images. Product list seems to keep showing 'old image' while details show the new image. It was found to be related to resizing and caching resized images. A work-around measure has been introduced, by which "resizing" (re-generating the sized image) is forced when using the Imagehandler.ashx resource. Also it can be required to apply a fix in front end using image version number on product lists will result in new images being available quicker in shop front. Please note that this will be a per-shop change, so you should consider if such change is required or not.
EB-173 Duplicate sales prices from upload due to upload performance problems. Performance optimization of upload jobs done to prevent upload jobs from timing out and hence sales price duplicates should be removed in the future [Ticket#2022041910000022].
EB-213 Error in product price related to context values cookie for country id. Cookie refresh implemented to secure that country specific price is always correct also if user changes country in shop a number of times [Ticket#2022012810000029].
EB-172 Problem when merging baskets from login and wo login is fixed. Before, when merging baskets actually only the one basket line is kept when both baskets contains same product, while message is saying baskets were merged. This was actually 'by design', but we have decided to improve this merge functionality to make it more logically from clients perspective. Now product lines on same product are merged and the item count from both baskets is summed together [Ticket#2022050210000123].
EB-247 + EB-248 Coupons/ Vouchers – the negative selection and positive selection ignores BOM and variant products. Now BOM and Variant products are also handled in relation to Vouchers [Ticket#2022080810000072].
EB-233 Navigate URL - breadcrumb is picking up wrong menu items resulting in empty page when selecting breadcrumb. Fixed now.
EB-252 Error in test webshop blocking a coming campaign - error message blocks basket and hence not able to order. Fixed [Ticket#: 2022082410000121].
EB-242 Problems with Giftcards. Calculation and amounts do not seem to be correct. Fixed.
EB-234 Problem when salesperson creates/ updates a customer’s Favorites, resulting in customer sometimes loses his own favorites. Fixed – refer also to EB-244 [Ticket#2022070810000351].

3/1/2022 eSellerCloud Shopadmin, Version 2.4 SB4_Rel, build 414

The new release of eSellerCloud Shopadmin was updated with the following changes:

New features

US21444 Shopadmin now supports removing importrequestqueue jobs from integration log.
US21851 Shopadmin now supports searching for import jobs in integration log.

Bug fixes

DE7887 Shopadmin orders list: Same order shown many times in order list - now fixed. #2021111710000103.
DE7881 Shopadmin ‘blind’ document links: Documents deleted in admin but still present in webshop due to ‘blind links’. ‘Blind links’ are now visible in Shopadmin (?? Instead of size) and can be deleted. #2021102810000022.
DE7859 Shopadmin - User can now switch between accounts without having to be administrator on all accounts. If a User is provided access to several accounts he can now easily switch between these accounts in Shopadmin #2021030210000076.
DE7566 Shopadmin texts translation: Now shows the correct reference language name #2020071010000028.
DE7176 Shopadmin CSV export: Performance optimization for sales prices CSV export implemented #2019112110000109.
DE7812 Shopadmin fails when uploading product documents with names longer than 100 characters: Shopadmin no longer fails but provide an error-message instead # 2019052910000044.
DE7866 Shopadmin fails on stock-productfiltering due to generated formatting of content design behind the filtering. Now fixed.

1/10/2021 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.4 SB4_Rel, build 388

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

New on docs

The article describing Bundle size handling has been added!

New features

This release introduces a brand-new set of REST API’s delivering shop functionality.

These API’s opens up brand new possibilities for delivering shop functionality like one-page web experience, mobile and desktop app, third-party web-integration and more. This is made possible due to the API’s being RESTfull. Simply put it means that the client is responsible for state information, instead of the server as is the case in current core shop implementation. The fact that each API endpoint works completely independent of other calls. As the API’s delivers very detailed information on shop entities, and the client is responsible how to implement desired user experience and workflow brings a whole new set of possibilities.

The documentation for the new API’s, aka “V3-API’s”, in its current state can be found here.
US19612 Image handler: Image handler URLs (e.g. produced by JSON product services) now includes "RevisionNo" query parameter. RevisionNo for an image will change whenever image or image size are updated and will result in these image updates, to be much faster available in the web shops.
US21893 Password reset mail language: The language of the password reset mail is made dependent on the language of the login. - If a languageId is specified on the login, this language will be used for the password reset mail. - If no languageId is specified on login, the context language will be used for the password reset mail. - Otherwise, if there's no context language (integration & admin) shop default language will be used.
US21905 Integration: As it has been implemented for product entities, importing product variants also now considers current stocklevel of the variant, when determining whether to update or skip data due to identical checksum.

Bug fixes

DE7771 Product list search: When making Product List search requests, filtering is now maintained.
DE7042 Coupons: Adding same coupon twice to basket and then removing coupon from basket again caused VIKING CalculateBasket to send out error message. Fix is made so it is no longer possible to add same coupon twice to basket #2020022610000034 #2020090110000023.
DE7436 Delivery address: Specifying a delivery address id on the customer data is now correctly treated as a default suggestion for end user #2020012710000034, #2019102110000021, #2019110710000136.
DE7680 Integration: It was not possible to NULL languageId and currencyId on customer and login. Now when these elements are defined but empty, the fields are set to NULL.
DE7638 Welcome message: Infomessage does not use msg_welcome from content design in webshopadm. Now welcome message uses text defined on the content design.
DE7830 SalesBundleSize: When setting SalesBundleSize on product variant master, product variants now respects such SalesBundleSize #2021051210000053.
DE5709 Basket: Now the basket that is created when new login is made in shopfront, gets the customer data stamped on it. This results in customer data being prefilled at checkout #2018101810000039.
DE6772 Input fields: Input fields are now trimmed of leading and trailing spaces before storing the values in the DB. This solves some field validation issues #2019110110000067.
DE6969 Basket: A problem with completing basket after removing an expired coupon is now fixed. When removing an expired coupon from the basket, now the basket identifies that this has happened and no longer blocks the process of completing the order #2020020310000014 #2020020310000023.
DE7591 Deals: Basket does not display line price even though deal-line says so. Now the deal line prices are shown #2020090710000076 #2021012610000025.
DE7820 Product feeds links are now consistent with language selection from corresponding domain setup (host header).

New on docs

The article describing Basket behavior has been updated!

New features

US20291 Basket: Per-field customer data compliance

Ensuring that basket is always updated with up-to-date customer data for logged-in customers is now even more flexible.

Previously, the shop group setting "Basket_AddressFollowsCustomer" ensured that customer data on the basket complied with the actual customer data (most oftenly imported from an ERP system).

This setting would ensure compliance with the following fixed set of fields (which would also be automatically "locked" so that the user could not enter anything in them):
- Customer payment address data: Company name, Name, Address, Address2, Zipcode, City and Country
- Customer delivery address data: Company name, Name, Address, Address2, Zipcode, City, and Country.

This update makes it possible for the shop administrator to define which fields must be locked during checkout and must comply with customer data, rather than using this fixed set of fields.

Defining which fields to lock/force to comply with customer data is done by setting the desired fields as "Read-only (Logged in)" in the shop administration (Settings > Customers > Customer information).

This new configuration means that the previous "Read-only" setting (which applied for both login and not-logged-in users) is now split up into two separate settings - "Read-only (Not logged in)" and "Read-only (Logged in)". This means that it is now possible to differentiate the configuration of the fields based on whether or not the user is logged in.

NOTE: Customer data will only be forced onto a field in the basket if the shop group setting "Basket_AddressFollowsCustomer" is set to "Enforce" AND if the field is set to "Read-only (Logged in)".

USE CASES/EXAMPLES

1) My shop does not support logging in and customers may change any of the customer information during checkout.
=> Shop group "Basket_AddressFollowsCustomer" setting should be set to "Ignore" (or "Enforce") and none of the fields should be configured as "Read-only".

2) My shop supports logging in and customers may change any of the pre-filled customer information during checkout.
=> Shop group "Basket_AddressFollowsCustomer" setting should be set to "Enforce" and none of the fields should be configured as "Read-only".

3) My shop supports logging in and customers may not change the fields "company name", "e-mail" and "country" during checkout - it must be ensured that this data on the basket/order complies with what is specified on the customer (for example, from my ERP system).
=> Shop group "Basket_AddressFollowsCustomer" setting should be set to "Enforce" and the payment address fields "company name", "e-mail" and "country" should be configured as "Read-only (Logged in)".
US17981 ProductService: ProductVariants service now returns variant name
US16369 Doccache: Extended product information is now cached in doccache resulting in better performance
US16459 Shopadmin: Performance optimization regarding coupons in shopadmin
US16358 Google sitemap: Google sitemap is now using doccache, resulting in lower response times

04/06/2019 eSellerCloud web, Version 1.81a SB4_Rel_Ftp(20170317), build 12 (FTP)

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

New features

US17984 Importing product custom field values now supports integrationScope!
This means that it is no longer necessary to specify all custom field values for a product, e.g. when adding a new custom field value, as long as integrationScope of the element is partialIntegration.

This will make it possible to greatly reduce the amount of data imported, especially in cases where a very large number of custom field values are defined for products.

It is also possible to delete a specific custom field value by setting the “delete” attribute for the value.

NOTE: When integrationScope “partialIntegration” is not specified, the default integrationScope is still fullIntegration (to maintain backwards compatibility).

NOTE also: The schema documentation is not yet updated!
US15393 Bulk image upload supports URL encoding filenames!
With this change, it is now possible to upload images with filenames containing file system-reserved characters (such as products containing “/” in ext. ID).

Allowing this requires enabling a setting in the shop administration at Base setup > Company info > Account > FTP account – it is called “Are file names URL encoded?”

When this setting is enabled, the FTP decodes filenames prior to matching the file with a product, which means that file names must be URL encoded prior to uploading them.

When importing a file with a URL-encoded filename, the FTP decodes the name and attaches it to the correct product. The FTP displays the file strings as they were uploaded (does not display decoded strings).

NOTE: The behavior of FTP clients may differ when handling encoded strings – apparently some FTP clients decode the string rather than delivering it to the FTP server as-is.

This means that for some FTP clients, the image strings must be double encoded!

For instance, if the image string is originally “_M/L__500_hæhæ.jpg” (referencing an ext. ID containing “/”), the encoded string is “_M%2FL__500_h%C3%A6h%C3%A6.jpg” and the double-encoded string is “_M%252FL__500_h%25C3%25A6h%25C3%25A6.jpg”.

FileZilla seems to accept single-encoding.
WinSCP seems to require double-encoding.

Bug fixes

DE4426 Salesperson logins: Updating salesperson login username must be possible #2018110710000012
Updating salesperson login username from integration now works correctly.
DE4427 Salesperson logins: Salesperson login email cannot be updated #2017112110000078
It is now possible to update the e-mail address of salesperson login.

A new field has been added to the salesPerson.shopGroup.login element; <emailAddress>, which means that it is now possible to update the e-mail address of salesperson logins.
NOTE: The schema documentation is not yet updated with this new field!
DE4871 Currency: Currrency reference uses ISO code for customer logins and line discounts
Fixes an error where on customer login and line discounts referenced ISO4217Alpha rather than currency ext. ID.
DE4694 Gift cards: giftCardState enumeration option should not be case sensitive
Fixes a problem where giftCardState enumeration is case sensitive (when it should not be) when importing gift cards.
DE4683 Payment transactions "CreatedBetween" must expect date-times to be in local timezone
Fixes a problem where integration assumed that the date-times specified for the CreatedBetween criteria for payment transactions export were UTC.
Now the integration expects that the date-times are in local time zone (Europe/Copenhagen).

02/10/2018 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.0 SB4_Rel, build 307

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

DE5628: Basket: Merging basket lines for VIKING basket now preserves all basket lines #2018092710000042
System stabilization and new logging for debugging #2018092610000099

21/09/2018 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.0 SB4_Rel, build 304

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

New features

US16643: Stock level is now attempted updated immediately upon ordering
What’s different? Previously eSeller Cloud would update stock level every 2 minutes, which meant that adjusting stocklevel would potentially occur up to 2 minutes after the order was placed.
Rather than updating every 2 minutes, the shop now attempts to adjust stock level immediately after an order has been placed. If for some reason it is not able to (for instance, if it is blocked by an import updating stock level on that account), the shop will add the adjustment transaction to a queue, which will execute every 2 minutes. This reduces the risk of overselling items in fire sales such as Black Friday.

Bug fixes

DE5386: Merging baskets before/after login now consistently handles all types of items #2018052910000091
– see the updated documentation here.
DE5578: Remembering basket now correctly complies with the shop setting "Remember basket when logged in" #2018091010000083
DE5611: VIKING – Basket caching now considers entire pricing context #2018091910000085
DE5361: VIKING - Adding to basket from order history using Basket API no longer periodically fails #2018052410000082

31/08/2018 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.0 SB4_Rel, build 301

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

New features

US14489 Custom fields: Product custom field "native" value may now hold up to 255 characters. The previous limit was 50 characters.
Product custom field filter controls now use doccache for rendering filters. This translates to better response times for product list pages using custom field filters.

Bug fixes

DE4423 Pricing: Price calculation precision #2017033010000085
Price calculation now uses 10 decimals when calculating prices, rather than the previous 5 decimals. This results in a higher level of precision.
DE5552 ShopAdmin: Product list in shopadmin now allows the user to enter a search query, narrowing the result set, if a timeout occurs #2018082810000042

14/08/2018 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.0 SB4_Rel, build 297

New features

US16108 Google Sitemap: Sitemap index
The Google sitemap now generates a sitemap index, containing links to sub-sitemaps each containing up to 10.000 URLs. This improves performance of getting the sitemap for shops with a very large number of indexed URLs. See the documentation here.
US14504 Google sitemap: Support for hreflang information
The Google sitemap now contains "alternate" links indicating language and country of the URL. This helps Google Search point uses to the most appropriate version of your page, and it reduces the risk of content being deemed as duplicate. This feature also allows for including URLs from multiple shops on the same account, in case language/country-specifc shops are created. See the documentation here.
US15870 B2A: Changing active customer must use default currency if no currency is specified on customer
The shop now automatically selects the default currency of the shop, if no specific currency is specified for the active customer.
US15676 Export wizard: Support for exporting MenuItemID
The export wizard is now able to export the (internal) product menu ID. This is particularly useful when setting up 301 redirects for shops that migrate from a Classic shop to a Cloud shop or from a Cloud shop to another Cloud shop.
DE4030 Gift Card: Gift card log of type "Created" now includes Order ID, so it can easily be identified, which order created a gift card.
US14119 Shopadmin: Support for deleting design defined texts
It is now possible to delete "orphan" texts that have previously been defined in a content design using a <eSeller:Select Text="some_text_key"> tag.
US13485 Order: New customer-related runtime values are now available
These runtime values allow the order confirmation page / order confirmation e-mail to contain customer-related data, which for instance makes it possible to personalize order confirmation e-mails by addressing the customer directly, such as "Dear John Doe..." in the order confirmation e-mail. Moreover, it allows for more flexible styling of the order confirmation page / e-mail. See the new SellTo and DeliveryAddress runtime values here.
US13699 Order API: A new order API is now available - check it out here.
Use the flexible API to freely design order history pages for logged-in customers.
Basket API: Support for coupons
It is now possible to add / view / delete coupons using the Basket API. Check out the new coupon-related methods here.
Custom field filters: Performance optimization.

Bug fixes

DE3876 Gift cards: Improved performance for exporting gift cards using the shopadmin export wizard.
DE4044 Import wizard: An error no longer occurs when more columns with the same name exists in the imported file.
DE4133 Customer login: The shop now displays an error message when a customer with an inactive country attempts to log in to the shop. The text key of this message is "error_label_country_ is_not_active" and it managed in the CustomerLogin control texts.
DE4093 CMS editor: browser related problems #2016122710000031
DE2959 PaymentTransactions: Inconsistencies in the export schema for payment transactions have been fixed.
DE4896 Coupons: Validity date (time) now uses account time zone rather than UTC. This fixes a problem where setting a coupon validity to a date, the coupon would not be active until 02:00 at that date. Now the coupon is valid from 00:00 at the specified date.

07/06/2018 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.0.1 SB4_Rel, build 31

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

New features

The CustomerSelector control has been extended with new attributes; Mode and MaxResultCount. These new attributes facilitate better performance, especially for B2A portals where sales persons have many related customers. We strongly recommend that MaxResultCount is always specified for the control, and that a suitable value is set - e.g. 50. See the updated documentation on the control here.

24/05/2018 eSellerCloud web, Version 2.0 SB4_Rel, build 229 (Search service)

Besides various changes optimizing performance and stability, eSeller Cloud was updated with the following changes:

The Smart Search engine has been rewritten, improving search results especially for items with ID fields containing white space. #2017100610000054

Read more about it here.
US17331 ShipmentAddress: Setting for selecting no shipment address
The ShipmentAddress control now supports a new setting; “AllowNoShipmentAddress” (True/False). The purpose of this setting is to serve as an alternative to using the “ShipmentAddressCheckbox“ control in the design or using the ShipmentAddress “Required” setting.
The “AllowNoShipmentAddress” setting allows the design to always display the ShipmentAddress input fields and let the customer choose whether specify a shipment address or to use payment address as shipment address by selecting a new “Same as payment address” option in the drop-down selector.

New features

US16724: ShopMenu control has been completely rewritten and uses DocCache!
We've extended the implementation of DocCache, so the ShopMenu control rendering product- and info menus now uses the awesome DocCace feature! This results in blazing fast response times and much more flexible caching. This means that updated menus are shown in the shop front almost immediately after being saved - hours will no longer go by until the changes are visible (note: these changes do not currently apply to product menu images).
Moreover, we've extended the Depth attribute so that it is more flexible - it now supports the values "All" or an integer defining the number of menu levels to display. Previously it only supported the values "All", "1" or "2".
JSON ProductList requests with missing/empty mId paramater now also uses DocCache, which translates to lower response times!
Improve search service stability and caching scheme for faster search results.

24/03/2017 eSellerCloud web, Version 1.81a SB4_Rel_Ftp, build 1 (FTP)

New features

This FTP update contains comprehensive performance optimization:
Retry upon timeout
One of the noticeable new features is improved resilience against import timeouts. Now, when an import fails due to a timeout, the integration will re-try the import up to two times before giving up and failing the import.

Many times when an import fails due to timeout, it is caused by it colliding with another transaction, e.g. a maintenance job running on the SQL, and by retrying the import just a few minutes later in most cases the import will succeed.

This means that we experience a lot less import fails due to timeout and that the integration is running a lot more stable.
Deleting entities from integration
As mentioned above we’ve rewritten the way the integration handles deletions, which means that now the integration is able to delete large quantities of entities within a few minutes.

As an example, the new FTP completed a “full integration” file of 756 MB deleting 112.076 custom field values in only 20 min – a task that would have been impossible for the previous FTP to complete without timing out.
Performance optimization
After identifying some very specific time consuming processes for large imports, we managed to decrease the time it takes to import files significantly.

Using a specific shop as a case study (~55.000 products) we saw that the import of the nightly “FullIntegration” file decreased from 30-40 min to 15 min – an improvement of around 50%!

Moreover, we’ve observed that the file queue length is generally lower than before the update, indicating that imports generally are handled more efficiently.

These changes entail that the integration is a lot more stable as timeout failures are less likely due to performance optimization and due to the new retry feature.
US14609 XML import: Support for deleting delivery addresses
It is now possible to delete all delivery addresses using FTP XML integration.

Bug fixes

DE3800 XML import: Omitting EAN number field in import file no longer deletes value for variant

The JSON product list documentation has been updated so that it is easier to see which properties apply to the different services.

New features

DE2718 Customer and Salesperson identification must be provided to json product list
- These changes mainly relate to the JSON product service and address an issue where wrong product lists were retrieved when customers/salespersons were logged in.
The changes require that for shops with login functionality (both customer an/or salesperson), it must be ensured that calls made to the JSON service contain the “customerId” parameter and that this parameter holds a proper authorization token with which the shop is able to establish whether someone is logged in, as well as who is logged in (in order to get correct prices etc.).
- This authorization token can be retrieved from the new runtime values “AuthToken” and “AuthTokenUrlEncoded” (which is just the URL encoded version of “AuthToken”) - these runtime values are found in the “context” container - find it here.
Note that backwards compatibility is ensured - this means that if the “customerId” parameter is not specified / empty / 0, the shop will get the product list as if no one is logged in.
- Example of old call:
/Services/ProductService.asmx/ProductList?v=1.0&lId=0&so=3&cId=54&langId=1&countryId=11&locId=13& customerId=0&mId=6639&p=1&rp=10&imgSizeId=0
- Example of new call:
/Services/ProductService.asmx/ProductList?v=1.0&lId=0&so=3&cId=54&langId=1&countryId=11&locId=13& customerId=r%2fflMYGBFdZ3%2fuMSxYexCG%2fkXFSRKfKQ&mId=6639&p=1&rp=10&imgSizeId=0
The JSON product service now supports the parameter “context” which is a value defined by the client and echoed by the server in the JSON result. This parameter can be used to correlate responses with requests - especially useful in situations where batches of requests are made - see the Google JSON style guide.
Example:
/Services/ProductService.asmx/ProductList?v=1.0&lId=0&so=3&cId=54&langId=1&countryId=11&locId=13&customerId=r%2fC3U42ykx9OsPNgKmS%2bHExrRqg695qJ&mId=6639&p=1&rp=10&imgSizeId=0&context=frontPageProducts
yields a result containing the specified “context”:

New features

US10163: Ftp xml import: Possibility to import salesperson/customer relation
- Support for creating salesperson-customer relations via XML import.
See the updated schema documentation here.
US10435: Ftp xml import - customer element - shopGroup-login sub element behaviour change - New notation for importing customer logins (backwards compatibility has been ensured).

Why this behaviour change?

Using the new notation (nesting the <login> elements inside the <logins> element), it is now possible to import customers with existing logins without having to include the customer logins in the import file (with the previous behaviour, omitting the logins would delete them).

— We encourage all to use the new notation, giving full control over the customer logins —

Observe the following new behaviour (when the <shopGroup> element is specified):
- Specifying both <login> (the old notation) and <logins> (the new notation) on same level (sub element to <shopGroup>) will result in an import error - you must use either the new notation or the old notation.
- No <login> nor <logins> element present (as sub element to <shopGroup>): logins are neither altered nor deleted.
- One or more "login" element(s) present (as sub element(s) to <shopGroup>): logins are updated - existing logins for the customer not specified in the import file will be deleted (provided they are owned by the data origin).
- If <logins> is present:
* No <login> sub elements are present: Any logins on the customer are deleted (provided they are owned by the data origin).
* One or more <login> sub element(s) are present: Logins are updated - existing logins for the customer not specified in the import file will be deleted (provided they are owned by the data origin).

New features

US11008 Bookmark uniqueness per shop enforcement
US11009 Bookmark update capability for info menues
US9583 eSeller:Select to support formatting attribute
- The “format" attribute allows the front-end developer to format the value of any numeric/date-time runtime value so that it is delivered in the specified format.

Examples:
<eSeller:Select Value-Of="Product:ExpectedDeliveryDate" format="dd/MM/yy" />, which delivers the expected delivery date of a product in the format dd/MM/yy (e.g. 06/10/15).
<eSeller:Select Value-Of="Product:Pricing.PreviousTagPrice" format="0.00" />, which delivers the product previous tag price in the format 0.00 (e.g. 233,50).
You find the updated documentation here.
