addVirtualProductsToCart mutation
A virtual product represents a saleable item that is not physical, such as a membership, service, warranty, or subscription. Virtual products do not need to be shipped or downloaded, nor do they require stock management.
The addVirtualProductsToCart
mutation allows you to add multiple virtual products to the cart at the same time, but you cannot add other product types with this mutation. To add a virtual product to a cart, you must provide the cart ID, the SKU, and the quantity. You can also optionally provide customizable options.
