Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC) in Enterprise Architecture

Integrating salesforce Commerce Cloud (formerly Demandware) into an enterprise technology ecosystem requires deep alignment between SFCC's Open Commerce API (OCAPI), Commerce SDKs, and external microservices. As enterprise retailers scale, leveraging salesforce login federation via SAML 2.0 / OAuth guarantees secure unified access for merchandise teams.

OCAPI & Composable Storefront API Integration

Below is a production Node.js integration script for querying catalog products via SFCC OCAPI REST endpoints using OAuth client credentials:

// sfcc-ocapi-client.js
const axios = require('axios');

class SFCCClient {
  constructor(domain, clientId, clientSecret) {
    this.domain = domain;
    this.clientId = clientId;
    this.clientSecret = clientSecret;
    this.token = null;
  }

  async authenticate() {
    const authHeader = Buffer.from(`${this.clientId}:${this.clientSecret}`).toString('base64');
    const res = await axios.post(`https://${this.domain}/dw/oauth2/access_token`, 
      'grant_type=client_credentials', 
      {
        headers: {
          'Authorization': `Basic ${authHeader}`,
          'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
        }
      }
    );
    this.token = res.data.access_token;
  }

  async getProduct(productId) {
    if (!this.token) await this.authenticate();
    const res = await axios.get(`https://${this.domain}/s/-/dw/data/v23_2/products/${productId}`, {
      headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${this.token}` }
    });
    return res.data;
  }
}

module.exports = SFCCClient;
