Hi,
I'm currently looking into implementing your api with our application and I have to solve the following szenario:
Plan: A
- user can have up to 10 lists
- user can share EACH list with up to 1 person
I would love to have as much logic (and with that flexibility) on the side of CheddarGetter.
How would it be possible to implement this?
One way I thought would be to define a MAX_SHARING_LIMIT item and then check for every "share action" if the current list is already shared...
For that to work I would need a "Get Item Quantity" function, but I did not see one in the API.
The bad thing about that would be that I have to add the logic myself :(
Another (and I think cooler) way to solve this would be to add an optional parameter 'subitem' of type string to the "Add Item Quantity/Remove Item Quantity" request. With that the sub item count could be tracked.
Looking forward to your feedback.
Best,
Gerwin

Hi Gerwin -- You can get current item quantities from the
customers/getAPI call.It sounds to me like you'll need to write some logic on your side to achieve what you want. You might consider leveraging the MetaData feature, however: http://support.cheddargetter.com/faqs/api-8/customer-meta-data
