Product URL | BigCommerce Developer Center

International Enhancements for Multi-Storefront

This feature is currently available for Enterprise stores and Partner Sandboxes. If the feature is not working as expected, please contact technical support, as the feature likely needs to be enabled for the individual store. To become an enterprise customer, contact your BigCommerce Customer Service Manager or our support team.

Using the Catalog features of the Admin API, you can set and query product URLs for a store or a locale within a storefront channel.

Perform the following:

Set product URLs for the store. Channels inherit these by default.
Create overrides for a channel’s locale using the overridesForLocale mutation. The product URL for the locale overrides the global value.
Remove overrides for a channel’s locale. The product URL then defaults to its global store value.
Query product URL, those set at the global level and the overrides.

For a full schema, see the GraphQL Admin API reference.

Input fields

Setting or removing information requires that you specify ID fields in the input. For more information on how to specify ID fields, see Input fields.
