Response

  • GET /api/v1/context returns default_locale, base_market_id, language information and market information available to the key.
  • Use the returned market codes and identifiers; do not assume that a market code is identical to a country code.
  • global_enabled indicates the plan entitlement to additional markets. The base market works without this entitlement. There is no manual Shopently Global switch; multilingual mode is independent.
  • Check global_enabled in the GET /api/v1/context response.

Parameters

No path, query or additional header parameters.

This operation does not accept a JSON body.
