Verdicts

Adobe Commerce (Magento)

Public Swagger files cover 510 REST operations for the cloud service, the GraphQL schema carries cart, checkout and order mutations, and the cloud service authenticates by OAuth 2 through Adobe IMS. No request rate limit or idempotency key was found in the API documentation, Adobe publishes no MCP server for Commerce, and a licence starts with a sales order.

Wix Stores and eCommerce API

The developer docs are served as Markdown with an llms.txt index, and API keys carry permission scopes and a site restriction. No numeric REST rate limit or OpenAPI file was found, and status.wix.com records a platform-wide incident of 3 hours 17 minutes on 1 August 2026. A person must create the account and the key.

Before you call either

Adobe Commerce (Magento)

  1. Ask which deployment the store is. The cloud service answers at https://<server>.api.commerce.adobe.com/<tenant-id>/ with no /rest prefix, and other stores at https://<host>/rest/<store-view-code>/
  2. On the cloud service, request an IMS token with the commerce.accs scope and send the Store header to pick the store view
  3. On a 2.4 store, sign requests with all four integration credentials by OAuth 1.0a. A bare integration token is refused unless the merchant has switched that on
  4. Add ?fields= to REST calls and set searchCriteria[pageSize]. Stores with input limits on cap a page at 300 items
  5. Don't retry placeOrder or a POST blindly. Read the cart or order back first, because no idempotency key was found

Wix Stores and eCommerce API

  1. Send the API key in Authorization with wix-site-id for site calls or wix-account-id for account calls, never both
  2. Fetch the product first and pass product.revision on every Catalogue V3 update, or the call fails with 409
  3. Use Cart V2 for new work. The older eCommerce Cart and Checkout APIs were deprecated on 5 August 2026
  4. Request cursorPaging.limit of at most 100 on Query Products and use Search Products for lookups by name
  5. Over MCP, read the method page with ReadFullDocsArticle before CallWixSiteAPI. Responses are cut at 50,000 characters by default
