getCurrentCart( )


Deprecated. This function will continue to work, but a newer version is available at wix-ecom-backend.CurrentCart.getCurrentCart().

We recommend you migrate to the new Wix eCommerce APIs as soon as possible.

Migration Instructions

If this function is already in your code, it will continue to work. To stay compatible with future changes, migrate to wix-ecom-backend.CurrentCart.getCurrentCart().

The wix-ecom-backend.CurrentCart.getCurrentCart() function works from both backend and frontend code.

To migrate to the new function:

  1. Add the new import statement:

    Copy
    import { currentCart } from "wix-ecom-backend";
  2. Look for any code that uses cart.getCurrentCart(), and replace it with currentCart.getCurrentCart(). Update your code to work with the new currentCart.getCurrentCart() call and response properties. For more info about the differences between the Stores Cart and eCommerce Cart, refer to the cart conversion table.

  3. Test your changes to make sure your code behaves as expected.
