Orders by bundle

How to use the Metrics API to get the total number of orders containing a bundle, grouped by the bundle name

The problem

You want to get the total number of orders that contain a bundle, over a selected date and time range, grouped by the bundle name.

The solution

Query

You need to perform a breakdown query setting the required query keys as follows and adding the optional ones based on your needs:

Key	Value
by	line_items.name
field	order.id
operator	value_count

Filter

Make sure to set the desired date and time range using the date_from and date_to keys in the filter.

In the example below, since the date_field isn't specified in the date filter, the default value current_date will be used, meaning that the results will count all the orders that changed their status within the selected date and time range (read more about this).

Try it on Postman 🚀

Example

Request

The following request uses the Metrics API to get the total number of orders containing a bundle, grouped by the bundle name:

curl -g -X POST \
  'https://{{your_domain}}.commercelayer.io/metrics/orders/breakdown' \
  -H 'Accept: application/vnd.api.v1+json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer {{your_access_token}}' \
  -d '{
    "breakdown": {
      "by": "line_items.name",
      "field": "order.id",
      "operator": "value_count",
      "limit": 20,
      "sort": "desc"
    },
    "filter": {
      "order": {
        "date_from": "2021-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "date_to": "2021-12-31T23:59:00Z"
      },
      "line_items": {
        "types": {
          "in": [ "bundles" ]
        }
      }
    }
  }'

Response

On success, the API responds with a 200 OK status code, returning the aggregated, nested values in the data object and extra information in the meta object:

{
  "data": {
    "line_items.name": [
      {
        "label": "Black T-shirt + White Hat",
        "value": 504
      },
      {
        "label": "3 T-shirts (black + white + red)",
        "value": 239
      },
      {
        "label": "Branded Hat + Mug",
        "value": 227
      },
      { ... }
    ]
  },
  "meta": {
    "type": "breakdown",
    "trace_id": "fe571ea2-8a4f-4a5e-bd26-ac54651bb2e4",
    "mode": "test",
    "organization_id": "xYZkjABcde",
    "market_ids": [ "yzXKjYzaCx", "..." ]
  }
}

Similar cases

Just changing a couple of query keys and/or filter parameters you can address lots of very similar use cases, such as:

• Total number of orders by country code

• Total number of tagged orders by tag name

• Total number of orders by market name

• Total number of orders by shipping address city

• Total number of orders by currency code

• Total number of orders by repeat customer

• Total number of orders by customer email associated with a specific coupon

• Total number of orders with a specific personalization option

• Mixed stats about the number of products per order by country code
