Product Sorting

Product Sorting API Methods

The SortingAlgorithm model ensures that the products in the categories and collections are sorted according to a certain algorithm. Sorting types can be static, dynamic or external. When the static sorting algorithms are used for the catalog or collection, the products are sorted statically without depending on other conditions. In dynamic sorting algorithms, a sorting rule set is created by using certain filters so that the products in the catalog or collection are renewed and sorted according to the determined rule set. External sorting algorithms sort by the saved rules with a file.

`GET` Sorting Algorithms

Sample HTTP request to retrieve all sorting algorithm lists from the system with their details.

‘content_type’ header represents the response type.

The "Authorization" header is required for authentication. You can retrieve api_token by logging in.

Path: /api/v1/sorting_algorithms/

Request

import requests

url = "https://{customer_api_url}/api/v1/sorting_algorithms/"
api_token = "API TOKEN"

headers = {
    'content-type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'Token {}'.format(api_token)
}

response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
print(response.text)

Response

In response, it returns the sorting algorithm details. The rule set that comes in the response also contains the rules of the relevant dynamic sorting.
