Triggering using Cart API

[HussainM]

I want to trigger a catalog item using another catalog item and getting input variable from one catalog item to the other, using Cart catalog API by using a custom flow designer action.
If any other ways to do this, please do tell me.
I am relatively new to SN platform. So please do explain in a way fresher can understand.

Hi @HussainM ,

1. Create a custom flow designer action that triggers the second catalog item.
2. In the custom flow designer action, use the Cart API to add the first catalog item to the cart.
3. In the custom flow designer action, retrieve the input variable from the first catalog item and pass it as a parameter to the second catalog item.
4. Add the custom flow designer action to the first catalog item's flow.

Example of code snippet:

// Add first catalog item to the cart
var cartAPI = new Cart();
var cartItem = cartAPI.addItem('cat_item_sys_id_1');

// Retrieve input variable from the first catalog item
var inputVariable = cartItem.getVariable('input_variable_name');

// Add input variable as a parameter to the second catalog item
cartAPI.addItem('cat_item_sys_id_2', inputVariable);

// Submit the cart
cartAPI.submit();

Please note that you need to replace the 'cat_item_sys_id_1' and 'cat_item_sys_id_2' with the actual sys_id of the catalog items, and 'input_variable_name' with the name of the input variable you want to pass to the second catalog item. Also make sure that you have the right permissions to access the catalog item and cart API.
