Add favorite lists to WebAPI

We have a customer running DW 9 headless where we have to implement product favorites.

It would be great to have favorite list management added to the webapi so we don't have to create a custom solution for this.

Hi Tor

I have added devops#11587 to the queue to add

GET, POST, PATCH, DELETE for creating lists

GET, POST, PATCH, DELETE for creating items in a list

/dwapi/favorites/lists

/dwapi/favorites/items

Let me hear if you have other needs?

Hi Nicolai,

It looks pretty interesting.

For "creating items in a list", the operations also support quantities?

Any estimate about when this feature will make it to a release?

Thank you,
Adrian

Yes, productid, variantid, note, quantity and sortorder.

It should be completed by the end of sprint 2 of Q1/23 - ending Feb 7th. So sometime close after that when passing QA and release if the plan goes as it should.

Thank you Nicolai.

This is good news. I suppose these will not be featured in the 9.14 branch, right?

Hi Nicolai,
We have played around with the endpoints and everything works fine, except for one thing.

The Description field is not available in none of the endpoints. At least in 9.14.13. Is that by design or simply an oversight?

Can it be added to the endpoints?

Thank you,
Adrian

Indeed it is missing,

Hi Nicolai,
We have identified another missing part which is Sorting of products in Favorite lists. It is not part of the API.
It is only available for Get:

To put the need in context, we need to sort a Favorite product list by using a drag and drop interaction. For this purpose, it would be useful if we can patch the entire list with a single call, updating the order of the products inside the list (and ideally the quantities).

What do you think? Does it make sense?

Thank you,
Adrian

You can use the PATCH to items:

/dwapi/favorites/items/{listId}/{id}

It takes FavoriteProduct object that holds the sortorder

Hi Nicolai,

I have tested your suggestion and it works with one product object but I cannot send multiple ProductObjects (the entire list).

This makes updating the sort order a real pain because we would have to path every product in the list individually instead of updating the entire list at once.

Is there any other option to accomplish this scenario?

Thank you,
Adrian
