Magento 1.9 – Fetching Cart Info for Existing User Using SOAP API

magento-1.9soap

How do I get the cart details of an existing user using Magento SOAP API?

I have an e-commerce Application based on Magento. There is already a desktop webpage for this e-commerce application. My use case is this –

-> User logs in from desktop webpage and then adds an item to the cart -> User now logs in with the same credential from mobile

I want to be able to show the item that is being added from the desktop page. But right now I don't see any SOAP API which helps me query any existing cart info for a user.

Note: I am trying this from an Android Application. So please suggest anything that I can with the SOAP API's

There is no method to return the alredy existing shopping cart via SOAP API.

To share shopping carts via multiple devices, have a look at the persistent shopping cart functionallity which was introduced in Magento 1.6. With this you can share the shopping cart between your desktop page and mobile device.

You could use the filters for this call, and then use created_at to select a subset of products.

Try this:

$complexFilter->complex_filter = array(
    array(
        'key' => 'CREATED_AT',
        'value' => array('key' => 'from', 'value' => '2012-12-17 00:00:00')
    ), 
    array(
        'key' => 'created_at',
        'value' => array('key' => 'to', 'value' => '2013-01-21 12:02:02')
    ), 
);

I took this code from here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/22874035/1016425

You can also filter by other attribute like SKU or Id:

$filters->complexFilter = array(
    array( 'key' =>'sku', 'value' => array('lt'=>'03969999')),
    array( 'key' => 'sku', 'value' => array('gt'=>'03969000')),
);

Then you can handle the pagination in the app, of course you would need to know how many products you have and how many products you want to show per page. I don't know of any pagination solution out of the box for soap api.

Also you could use the REST api, or if you want create a controller and an action which takes parameters for pagination and implement it yourself and then return the results in json
