API

  • The Store Information API now includes the infrastructure_region of the store so you can determine the hosted store’s geographical location. This location is helpful when deploying supporting infrastructure for the store so you can deploy it nearby (or in the same GCP region) to minimize latency.

  • We recently exposed the added_by_promotion field in the v3 cart and checkout endpoints.

Catalyst

  • We’re happy to announce the newly released XML sitemap in Catalyst. You can now submit a complete BigCommerce sitemap to search engines for your Catalyst store.

Payments

  • We’re happy to announce the update of the Braintree SDK version from 3.104.0 to 3.106.0 as of 4 PM EEST, September 4, 2024. See the Checkout SDK JS in GitHub for more information.

Bug Fix

  • Updated the Create a Channel Site example from HTTP to HTTPS and added a note about using the HTTPS protocol.
