Adobe extension configuration
Commerce Unbundled: Extension License: Special license[1]
You can create or edit the configuration in the JCR or the File System (YAML) under /ecommerce-magento-connector/ecommerces/magento.yaml
.
If you do not want the connection definition to appear in any of the subapps, set the enabled
property (YAML line 3) to false
.
Note, that you can write your own implementation (YAML lines 4-14) or in the JCR under /ecommerce-magento-connector/ecommerces/magento.yaml
to suit your requirements, for example, to use additional features such as cross- and up-selling or custom features such as your own checkout solution.

Viewing and testing connections
This section explains how to view and test the connection between the Magnolia E-commerce add-on module and your external commerce solution using the E-commerce app.
-
Open the E-commerce app Configuration tab.
-
Select a connection.
-
Click View to see the details of your connection to an external e-commerce solution.
Depending on your external e-commerce solution, the connection information displayed may be:
-
Definition name - The unique definition name. This name appears in the Catalogs subapp.
-
Connection name - The unique name for the connection configured.
-
E-commerce type - The type of external e-commerce solution you are connected to.
-
Authentication URL - Authentication URL for the solution you are connected to.
-
Base URL - Base URL for the solution you are connected to.
-
Username and Password - Credentials to access the external solution. Passwords or client secrets can be managed in the Passwords app.
-
Connection enabled - Shows if the connection is enabled or not. You may choose to disable the configuration, for example, to improve performance times or to test a connection in one environment before enabling it in another.
Click Test connection to check the connection configuration is correct. A message appears indicating if the test is successful or not.
Once you’ve tested your connection, go to the E-commerce tab. You can see the connections you have configured listed with the catalogs they contain.
Connection configuration validator
The info.magnolia.ecommerce.common.ConnectionValidator
interface and its implementations check if a connection configuration is valid.
The connection validation check is executed when you click Test connection.
If the connectionValidator property is not configured, the default info.magnolia.ecommerce.common.DefaultConnectionValidator implementation is used. The default connection validator fallback only checks if the categories are returned by the service. This could give a false negative in some cases where the connection works but no categories exist.
|
The implementations of info.magnolia.ecommerce.common.ConnectionValidator
are configured under: <module-name>/ecommerces/<definition-name>.yaml
:
-
Default implementation:
info.magnolia.ecommerce.common.DefaultConnectionValidator
Evaluates the connection configuration as valid if it returns a non-empty list of categories.
-
commercetools:
info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.common.CommercetoolsConnectionValidator
Evaluates the connection configuration as valid if no exceptions are thrown when getting the project.
-
Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento):
info.magnolia.ecommerce.magento.common.MagentoConnectionValidator
Evaluates the connection configuration as valid when a not empty token is returned.
-
Salesforce:
info.magnolia.ecommerce.salesforce.common.SalesforceConnectionValidator
Evaluates the connection configuration as valid when getting catalogs does not throw an exception when connection parameter
siteId
equals no-site. In other cases, a site with a configured `siteId must be returned. -
SAP commerce:
info.magnolia.ecommerce.sap.common.SapConnectionValidator
Evaluates the connection configuration as valid when the returned list of
BaseSites
contains the configured connection name.
For example, this is a snippet of the connection configuration and implementation with the connectionValidator
set to the Commercetools implementation:
class: info.magnolia.ecommerce.common.EcommerceDefinition
type: commercetools
enabled: true
implementation:
products:
all: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.products.All
byId: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.products.ById
byCategoryId: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.products.ByCategoryId
searchByText: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.products.SearchByText
categories:
all: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.categories.All
byId: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.categories.ById
byParentCategoryId: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.categories.ByParentCategoryId
byProductId: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.categories.ByProductId
connectionValidator: info.magnolia.ecommerce.commercetools.common.CommercetoolsConnectionValidator
Configuring the cache
By default, the content pulled from your external e-commerce solution is updated every 300 seconds (5 minutes). You can configure the cache setting via YAML:
cachingDefinition:
enabled: true
invalidateInSeconds: 300
Configuring the images displayed in the E-commerce app
Images stored in your third-party e-commerce solution are displayed in the product detail view of the app.
You can configure:
-
If a single image or multiple images are displayed
-
The size of image(s) displayed.
For example:
form:
properties:
images:
label: Product image(s)
$type: multipleImageField
converterClass: info.magnolia.ecommerce.app.productdetail.field.URLsToStrings
imageRatio: 60

Configuring chooser dialogs (v1.3+)
You can configure the component definition chooser dialogs introduced in v1.3.
You can find the component configuration under /ecommerce-templating/dialogs/components
. There is also a section on chooser dialogs on the Category & Product use cases page.
The components introduced in v1.3 are suffixed with -v3 . Those with no suffix are provided for backwards compatibility with E-commerce v1.2.x.
|
By default, the chooser dialogs have four columns: connector, category, product and preview.
The Connector column is displayed when you have more than one connector correctly configured and enabled.
If you only have one connection enabled or correctly configured with a definitionName
and connectionName
in /<my-connector>/ecommerces/<my-connector>.yaml
then the Connector column is disabled by default, unless you set enableCategorySelection
to false
.
The Category and Product columns are displayed by default. You can disable them using the enableCategorySelection
and enableProductSelection
properties under /ecommerce-templating/dialogs/components/<any-v3-component>.yaml
.
By default, the system remembers the last selected item in a given chooser dialog. You can use the rememberLastSelectedLocation
property to change this.

Configuring text classification and image recognition for e-commerce content
If you have configured them, both Image Recognition and Text Classification are enabled for your e-commerce content.
To trigger the tagging operation, select a product and click Tag product in the E-commerce app action bar. You can view the tags generated in the ecommerce
workspace in JCR Browser app (system properties view) or in the Tags app. You can search for products based on the tags in the Find Bar.
Default configuration:
imageRecogniserEnabled: true
textClassifierEnabled: true
autoRecognitionEnabled: false

Configuring timeout
You can configure connectionTimeoutInSeconds
(the time needed to connect to the e-commerce solution) and readTimeoutInSeconds
(the time needed to read and show the data you selected).
The default value for connectionTimeoutInSeconds
is 10
while the default value for readTimeoutInSeconds
is 30
.
These values can be customized in the Resource Files app.
Find the connector you want to modify, open the folder, and choose the config.yaml
file:
connectionTimeoutInSeconds: 30
readTimeoutInSeconds: 10
Replacing the value with lower than 1 results in error in commercetools, and infinite timeouts in other available connectors.
|
In commercetools you can set only the connectionTimeoutInSeconds . Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento), Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and SAP Commerce Cloud (formerly Hybris) support both connectionTimeoutInSeconds and readTimeoutInSeconds .
