Configure Application Settings per Organization 

In this section, you can configure the Web API feature both for the back-office and storefront. By default, the API feature is disabled.

To change the default settings per organization:

  1. Navigate to System > User Management > Organization in the main menu.

  2. For the necessary organization, click the More Options menu at the end of the row, and then click the Configure icon to start editing the configuration.

  3. Select System Configuration > General Setup > Application Settings in the menu to the left.

    Note

    For faster navigation between the configuration menu sections, use Quick Search.

  4. Clear the Use System checkbox to change the system-wide setting.

  5. In the Web API section, select the required options:

    • Enable API — enables the back-office API feature for an organization.

    • Enable Storefront API — enables the storefront API feature for an organization.

    • Enable Guest Storefront API — grants access to some storefront API resources of an organization to non-authenticated visitors (available starting from v5.1.3). This option is activated when the storefront API feature is enabled.

    Note

    The back-office API feature can be toggled on the global and organization levels, while the storefront API configuration is available on three levels - globally, per organization, and per website.

  6. Click Save Settings.
