I'm pulling a merchant's inventory using the 'tag' method:
- Programmatically creating a 'myApp' tag on install
- On insert, update, delete event in the webhook for an inventory item with a matching tag id, i'm updating our data accordingly.
I've found there are a few cases that don't trigger the webhook:
- Bulk adding the items to the tag from the 'tags' section
- Bulk applying the tag from the items editor on the web console
What do Clover recommended we tell our merchants to do?
I'm thinking of a few solutions:
- Individually apply our tag to each item (I'd imagine this is cumbersome, and some merchants might think they're smart by trying to bulk apply the tag?)
- Tag the items however they wish, but require them to trigger some kind of update manually through our system (Like an 'update inventory' button. I can see this causing issues mainly with mismatched reporting if they forget to update things through our system)
- Some sort of scheduled cron etc.
Appreciate any suggestions/tips!
Thanks, Alan
