E-commerce customer resources represent a customer in an external e-commerce service such as Shopify. Customer resources primarily hold aggregate e-commerce data associated with a contact including the total revenue, total number of orders, and total number of products ordered (see the table below). This data cannot be saved to a customer object directly, but will be updated when order resources are created or updated for a customer. Note that a customer is related to a contact by the email address.
Field | Description |
|---|---|
| The total revenue amount for the customer. |
| The total number of orders placed by the customer. |
| The total number of products ordered by the customer. |
| The average revenue per order for the customer. |
| The most frequent product category ordered by a customer. |
Fields representing a monetary value are formatted in the lowest unit of the currency. For example,
$32.80would be represented as3280.
The API allows you to create, update, and delete customer resources. You can retrieve individual customers as well as a list of all customers. Before you can create any customers, you must have created a connection resource for the e-commerce service.
