Setting up the Brink environment
First, we must set up a Payment provider
, Shipping provider
, and Inventory
. After that, we add Store groups
and Store markets
and connect Providers
and Inventories
to Store Markets
.
After that, we configure Tax groups
and Tax markets
The easiest way to set this up is with the Brink Merchant Portal. Brink Merchant Portal is just an interface we've created to cover operations you seldom do and give you a view of what you've created in Brink Commerce API.
Brink Merchant Portal uses Brink Commerce API to perform all operations, so the same end-points are therefore available to you if you rather do the setup through API calls.
Login to the Brink Merchant Portal for the assigned environment https://merchant-portal.{environmentName}.brinkcommerce.com with the provided login credentials.
