Sitecore Commerce – XC9 Tips – Catalog api (/api/cxa/Catalog/..) gives 404 not found error

I was recently trying to integrate commerce to an existing sxa website. One of the issues I got that commerce component related APIs were giving 404 not found. For example, I added "Promoted Products" component to homepage. It seemed fine on experience editor but when I published and tried to see on website, I saw an error message on browser's console.


I checked the catalog configuration first, everything seemed fine. Then, I compared with storefront website. I noticed that RequestVerificationToken was missing on my website.



I searched a bit and found Sitecore official documentation related with it. According to documentation, I saw that Antiforgery rendering was missing and it was coming from Commerce Metadata partial design.

I added Commerce Metadata partial design to my website's page design and the issue got fixed.


After you add metadata and publish, you shoud see RequestVerificationToken on page.

Sitecore 9 - Custom Page Events & Filtering with XConnect

This is the first article of a series. I am going to start with creating a custom page event and will show how we can fetch event data using xconnect api. Let's start with reminding demo scenario: Imagine that you have a website displaying movies. Visitors are able to see movie details and take some actions like save movie or share it.  You want to follow the visitors' activities and you want to take some marketing actions based on those activities. For example, if a contact visits a movie more than X time or she/he saves a movie, you want to send those movies to an external system. In addition, there is going to be a limit to send same movie. Such as, it will not be possible to send same movie more than 2 times.  You want to configure this as a marketing automation plan to give flexibility to your marketing managers. They should be able to add configurable rules and activities.  My first focus is movie detail page. I want to track visitors when they visit the

A React Example in Sitecore

That's true, Sitecore components are useful and provide lots of facilities. They allow to build fully flexible website. And there is not much problem using post-backs to display your contents. However, if your website has user interactions, then it could be a headache. Too many post-backs would occur a poor user experience. That's why client-side technologies are really powerful and popular for a long time. There are plenty of javascript libraries and frameworks which all try to provide better user experience in different ways. It is not a topic of this article why I chose React. There are some good articles about it (e.g. Jonne Kats' great article ). However, one of the reasons is React only focus on view part. It is not a fully framework like Angular, it is rich featured library instead. And that's what I was looking for! The idea was to benefit Sitecore server-side and React client-side power. It seems they are very good match! Let's dive into code... I&#

Sitecore 9 - Creating Custom Segmentation Rule

Predicates are important to create rules for marketing automation and segmented lists. Before going through the details, I am going to remind what I am implementing again. Imagine that you have a website displaying movies. Visitors are able to see movie details and take some actions like save movie or share it.  You want to follow the visitors' activities and you want to take some marketing actions based on those activities. For example, if a contact visits a movie more than X time or she/he saves a movie, you want to send those movies to an external system. In addition, there is going to be a limit to send same movie. Such as, it will not be possible to send same movie more than 2 times.  According to my scenario, I need a rule to filter contacts who visits a movie more than X time. Maybe, we can add one more condition there like in Y days. To creating rule will give flexibility to marketing managers that then they can easily add or remove multiple rules and proceed the
