Hello together,

I’m trying to implement a functionality where the prices for products are loaded from an external API. I’m having some issues finding the logic where the related data is send to the frontend. Can anyone tell me what a good place to implement this behaviour would be?

    Hi David, we've done a similar thing. We're not storing prices at all in spryker but load them at runtime from our erp. Is this what you're after?

    Yes I think so. The prices are supposed to be loaded depending on the customer that is signed in.

    It would be great if you could give me a starting point to implement this behavior

    We implemented a dedicated client to handle these calls to the erp for us. So we did not override any existing module but built our own from scratch. This is then hooked up to an json endpoint which provides the prices (and some more, e.g. something like: if you order until 6pm you will get the delivery tomorrow morning). This endpoint is called via ajax from the browser, so that the site may be displayed even if the erp is responding slowly / not at all.

    Hi @ULW0Z4150, you can check \Spryker\Client\PriceProductStorage\PriceProductStorageClient and \Spryker\Client\PriceProductStorage\Storage\PriceConcreteStorageReader

    You can override this Price readers (for example replace Storage client \Spryker\Client\PriceProductStorage\PriceProductStorageFactory::getStorage with your own) and get prices from esternal source.
