Attempting to add a customer to an order via SDK
I can instantiate a v3 customer however cannot seem to find the V3 CustomerConnector.
I am able to create a V1 Customer via CustomerConnector as shown here, however the v3 Order requires a v3 Customer.
Am I missing a step here?
Did you try to use V1 customer connector? In fact it will work for you though. Use V3 order connector with V1 customer connector. For your requirement of connecting a customer to an order, that will work. if you are getting any specific error or exceptions, pass it on too.
Basically, you need to stub out a v3 customer object using the ID of the v1 customer. Here's a code stub of the basic operation.
final com.clover.sdk.v3.customers.Customer customerV3 = new com.clover.sdk.v3.customers.Customer();
customerV3.setId(customerV1.getId());
Order currentOrder = orderConnector.getOrder(orderId);
currentOrder.setCustomers(Collections.singletonList(customerV3));
orderConnector.updateOrder(currentOrder);
When using this code and then immediately firing the order programmatically, the customer name is often (5/10 times) null on the Order receipt. I will even loop back through every few seconds before firing with the following check
while(currentOrder.getCustomers() == null ||currentOrder.getCustomers().get(0).getFirstName() == null)
And tested updating the order with currentOrder = orderConnector.getOrder(currentOrder.getId()); and currentOrder = orderConnector.updateOrder(currentOrder);
If I go back into the Orders app, the customer information is there. Is there a way to refresh the order
using orderConnector.fire(currentOrder.getId());
I have written in a loop that waits for the customer name to not be null before firing, sometimes the customer just never shows up. Each loop I get and then update the order using order connector, even tried disconnecting/reconnecting order connector and creating a new order connector. ~5/10 times it will not show up. Thanks for your help on this mike
