Orders paid with gift cards

How to use the Metrics API to get the total number of orders that were paid using a gift card

The problem

You want to get the total number of orders that were (partially or totally) paid with any gift card, over a selected date and time range.

The solution

Query

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

KeyValue

field

order.id

operator

value_count

Filter

Set the desired date and time range using the date_from and date_to keys and add additional filters on the order field to restrict the related computation to paid orders associated with a gift card only:

AttributeOperator

gift_card

true

payment_statuses

"in": [ "skus" ]

As shown in the example below, use approved_at as the date_field in the date filter if you want the results to count all the orders that were approved in the selected date and time range (read more about this).

Example

The following request uses the Metrics API to get the total number of orders that were paid using any gift card:

curl -g -X POST \
  'https://{{your_domain}}.commercelayer.io/metrics/orders/stats' \
  -H 'Accept: application/vnd.api.v1+json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer {{your_access_token}}' \
  -d '{
    "stats": {
      "field": "order.id",
      "operator": "value_count"
    },
    "filter": {
      "order": {
        "date_from": "2021-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "date_to": "2021-12-31T23:59:00Z",
        "date_field": "approved_at",
        "gift_card": true,
        "payment_statuses": {
          "in": [ "paid" ]
        }
      }
    }
  }'

Similar cases

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