Returns confirmEmailResponse | undefined.


createCustomer

The createCustomer function creates a customer account based on the data supplied in the forms parameter. By default, the function calls the createCustomer mutation. If the apiVersion2 parameter is set to true, the function calls the createCustomerV2 mutation.

const createCustomer = async (
forms: Customer,
apiVersion2: boolean
): Promise<CustomerModel>
ParameterTypeReq?Description
formsCustomerYesSee function signature above
apiVersion2booleanYesSee function signature above

The createCustomerAddress function defines a new customer address. The customer can subsequently designate the address for billing or shipping orders. The function calls the createCustomerAddress mutation.

const createCustomerAddress = async (
address: AddressFormProps
): Promise<string>
ParameterTypeReq?Description
addressAddressFormPropsYesSee function signature above

getCustomerToken

The getCustomerToken function handles the sign-in operation. It requires userName and password parameters and performs the following actions under the hood:

You can use the getCustomerToken function to build a custom authentication flow that remains fully integrated with other drop-in components. The function calls the generateCustomerToken mutation.

const getCustomerToken = async (
{
email,
password,
translations,
onErrorCallback,
handleSetInLineAlertProps,
}: getCustomerTokenProps
): Promise<{
