Retrieve a merchant
How to fetch a specific merchant via API
To fetch a single merchant, send a GET
request to the /api/merchants/:id
endpoint, where id
is the ID of the resource that you want to retrieve.
Request
GET https://yourdomain.commercelayer.io/api/merchants/:id
Example
The following request fetches the merchant identified by the id "xYZkjABcde":
curl -g -X GET \
'https://yourdomain.commercelayer.io/api/merchants/xYZkjABcde' \
-H 'Accept: application/vnd.api+json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer your-access-token'
On success, the API responds with a 200 OK
status code, returning a single resource object:
