Orders

Use the section that matches your caller: storefront clients use Shopper REST or Search, trusted services use Management, and signed-in customer flows use Auth.

Use Orders when the job is about order records, order lines, status transitions, order history, sales metrics, or authenticated order lookup.

Management API order operations own trusted back-office order creation, updates, cancellation, line edits, status changes, history, merchant-user views, and metrics. Auth API order routes are read-only lookup surfaces for authenticated users or service-token app lookup.

Use order-line operations when the contents of an order are changing. Use order status operations when fulfillment or lifecycle state is changing. Use Auth API reads when the caller is retrieving existing order information through customer or service-token context.

For workflow guidance across order records, lines, status changes, account reads, metrics, and events, see Orders and order lines.
