Business value

Customers, ISVs, or partners can build Power Apps or Power Automate flows for Dynamics 365 Commerce business processes by using the Dynamics 365 Commerce Merchandising Connector. The connector simplifies the process of using the Dynamics 365 Commerce APIs.

Feature details

A connector is a proxy or a wrapper around an API that allows the underlying service to communicate with Microsoft Power Automate, Microsoft Power Apps, and Azure Logic Apps. It provides a way for users to connect their accounts and leverage a set of prebuilt actions and triggers to build their apps and workflows.

Dynamics 365 Commerce Merchandising Connector exposes actions for Power Apps or Power Automate to build custom applications in Microsoft Power Platform. These actions are exposed as Anonymous APIs so additional authentication is required in the connector.

Actions:

  • SearchProducts: Searches and returns the product details based on product ID or the search keyword.
  • GetProductInventory: Gets the product inventory information based on the product ID and location.
  • GetCategories: Gets the channel navigation hierarchy configured for the channel.

In the future, more actions will be added to the connector.
