Customers

Customers represent data about a specific customer. Carts, orders, attributes, addresses are associated with customers.

In a B2C environment a customer is the actual user ordering products.

The customer API is only available on the Propeller cloud version. The legacy version of Propeller does not support this API

📄️ Delete Customer by lookup key

Delete a `customer` by a specific lookupKey / lookupId combination. A deleted `customer` will be moved to the Propeller Recycle bin. This means the deleted customer can be restored, however, only via the Propeller backoffice.

The bulk endpoints offer an efficient way of importing/updating large amounts of customers with just a single API call. When using the bulk `sourceId` endpoint, the customers are identified by `sourceId`, `source` and `language`. If a customer doesn't already exist, it will be created. If it does exist, the customer found will be updated.

📄️ Bulk Customers by Id
