API queries regrading variations module
 

X-Cart version: Business 5.3.6.0 30 days trial

We were testing out X-Cart and we have the following queries regarding the API. Can you please let me know:

1. How we can use your API to import variable/configurable products? For example, products which have options like colors etc. and when you click on them the image, SKU and price changes.

2. How we can use your API to import custom fields?

3. How we can use your API to import the custom shipping table?

It would be great if you could give us some guidance on how we could do these via the API.

Thanks,
Nisanth

Hello.
I would advise to check our development documentation, it contains a comprehensive explanation on how to use REST API and how to pull data from X-Cart database.

REST API allows to pull absolutely every single data entity from X-Cart.

I'm afraid we don't have a ready piece of code for your case.
However, as I said, REST API allow to pull any data defined through X-Cart's model classes.
So you should study the above guide carefully, it has everything you need.
Also there are several examples of REST API usage here

They might help.
