Overview

Marketplace provides 2 ways to work with orders:

• create/update whole order with orderItems
• add/update/delete single orderItems to/from the existing order

On the client-side, the full order object is created with references to products and travelers. You can find the base URLs here.

PUT https://api.discover.swiss/market/v1/{orderNumber}
DELETE https://api.discover.swiss/market/v1/{orderNumber}

!!! Warning "Locking of the order" (prevent concurrency violation)

The order is locked for the duration of each request execution or until 5 minutes are up.
Locking means that only one request can modify the order at the same time, and all other requests will receive 423 error.

Additional info:

• The customer data is taken from the profile-person object
• A BillingAddress is not mandatory, because we create e-tickets only
• The product Identifier is the same in all environments (test/prod) but prices can change
• The order validation will add the name and the price to the orderItem
• ValidFrom is the desired starting date and time of the ticket
• orderNumber and orderItemNumber are determined by the server and not part of the request
• orderItemStatus is determined by the server and not part of the request

Note

For public transportation tickets, the ValidFrom date should be less than 2 months in the future.
