Integrating with web ecommerce store

I am wondering if someone might be able to address a couple questions I have about integrating our web based ecommerce with clover POS. My client has an ecommerce store selling tickets and also uses Clover POS to sell the same tickets at the retail location. We are adding inventory management in the web based ecommerce store and would like to connect the web based store to clover. My primary goals are:1. Update inventory in the web based store and have that reflected in clover POS terminals.2. Sell tickets via Clover POS terminals and have that reflected in web based commerce inventory managment system.I am not clear about how to establish this bi-directional, event based relationship. Any pointers on where to start? Thanks!

It sounds like an integration with Clover is definitely possible. Clover has a Web REST API that can use to access and modify inventory and order data. The best place to start is to check our Developer Docs.

  1. You can update inventory items via our REST API. Check out our REST API docs on API calls to make: https://www.clover.com/api_docs/#inventory_Items
  2. You can use webhooks to get notifications of payments and check to see if that order contained a specific inventory item. Webhooks are not guaranteed though, so it's recommended to do a regular pull to see if there were any payments/orders you may have missed. Read more about webhooks here: https://docs.clover.com/build/webhooks/
