Our Brand APIs facilitate access to brand-related data, offering functionalities such as retrieving list of available brands and obtaining detailed information about a specific brand using its unique slug.
Categories are hierarchical structure that enables a systematic organization of products for better discoverability of products on storefront. Categories are structured into three levels: L1, L2, and L3, with L1 representing the top-level category, followed by L2 and L3. For example - Clothing(L1) >> Shirts(L2) >> Formal Shirts(L3) A single L1 category can encompass multiple L2 categories underneath it, and similarly, an L2 category can contain multiple L3 categories within it. Category is a sales-channel specific configuration. While categories are common across all companies, sales channel can configure L3 category names tailored to their unique requirements.
