Entity Synchronization

Overview

OrderCloud introduces the ability to publish base entities to the destination of your choice.  You will be notified when the entities are created, updated or deleted via any of the following delivery configuration targets: 

• SearchIngestion for out-of-the-box integration with Sitecore Search

• An Http(s) endpoint

• An EventHub instance

• A Kafka instance

• AzureBlob logging

The current release allows you to synchronize the following entities:

• Categories

• Inventory Records

• Suppliers

• Users

  • Admin

  • Buyer

  • Supplier

Sitecore Search Integration

When synchronizing entities using the SearchIngestion delivery target, you must specify the name of the entity as part of the delivery target. If you are going to synchronize different entity types, then it is crucial that you create a separate delivery configuration for each entity type.

Example of a Product Synchronization Delivery Configuration

1{
2    "ID": "SynchronizeProducts",
3    "Name": "SynchronizeProducts",
4    "Enabled": true,
5    "DeliveryTargets": {
6    "SearchIngestion": {
7        "Domain": "<your domain>",
8        "Source": "<your source>",
9        "Endpoint": "https://discover.sitecorecloud.io",
10        "Entity": "product",
11        "ApiKey": null
12      }
13   }
14}

Example of a Category Entity Synchronization Delivery Configuration

1{
2  "ID": "SynchronizeCategories",
3  "Name": "SynchronizeCategories",
4  "Enabled": true,
5  "DeliveryTargets": {
6     "SearchIngestion": {
7      "Domain": "<your domain>",
8      "Source": "<your source>",
9      "Endpoint": "https://discover.sitecorecloud.io",
10      "Entity": "category",
11      "ApiKey": null
12    }
13  }
14}

Notice in the above configurations, the Entity names are specific to the type of entity defined in Sitecore Search.
