Technical Frontend analysis
Currently to show the promo code field, we need to configure the sanity with CBA offers and the CBA offers is deprecated.
When we applied the promo code on Whitelabel, we receive an error: Something went wrong. Please try again.
Besides that we have a possible problem: these masses of data are prod-voucherify
This is the example of the request/response when applying a promotional code:
Request:
{ "code": "8B9IKPQK", "cognitoId": "ec5cec01-b41b-509b-9111-310ab5a18154", "shouldRedeem": true, "offers": [ "7bf2c11c-ec68-4d44-abd3-597b3967fcef" ] }
Response:
{ "data": { "validatePromoCode": { "code": "8B9IKPQK", "reason": "misconfiguredCode", "message": "missing offerId", "isValid": false, "isRedeemed": false, "offerId": "", "__typename": "CBACouponResponse" } } }
Attention point
We are always sending
cognitoId
attribute (cognitoId
is like user id);The promo code is
CBACoupon
type;We send an available offer
"7bf2c11c-ec68-4d44-abd3-597b3967fcef"
;
Technical Backend analysis
On backend they use the intl-promotion-service
repository.
There is a method validateCoupon
that receives the frontend call
path:
intl-promotion-service/src/providers/vendors/voucherify.ts
This flow will create customer data on Voucherity with metadata:
{ metadata: { userIdType: "cognitoId", }, source_id: "ec5cec01-b41b-509b-9111-310ab5a18154", }
if
userIdType: "cognitoId"
so, the promo code is CBA type.if
userIdType: "loyaltyId"
so, the promo code is loyalty type.As frontend always sends the attribute
cognitoId
on backend, in other words, the promo code at checkout will be always CBA type.
After validating the voucher with Voucherify API (client.validations.validateVoucher()
) the return will be:
{ valid: true, applicable_to: { data: [], total: 0, data_ref: 'data', object: 'list' }, inapplicable_to: { data: [], total: 0, data_ref: 'data', object: 'list' }, tracking_id: 'track_ECpOaiQwipBVhSIEWGSfgmnjgtme+FQfW97lzOopYE6W1FvVYiEk7A==', code: 'INBIIT5F', discount: { type: 'AMOUNT', effect: 'APPLY_TO_ORDER', amount_off: 5000 }, start_date: '2023-08-28T07:00:00.000Z', metadata: { configId: '7bf2c11c-ec68-4d44-abd3-597b3967fcef' }, campaign: 'TEST VOUCHERIFY', campaign_id: 'camp_bHKpj7ruZxRPLoq2BqfCx0H2' }
The problem starts here: because the attribute metadata
contains { configId: ‘7bf2c11c-ec68-4d44-abd3-597b3967fcef' }
, this value is for loyalty code types, in other words, this return is wrong and should be returned an offerId
attribute.
Possibility Solution
With the analysis above and as CBA promo code is deprecated (https://rbidigital.slack.com/archives/C04FZ5HTH35/p1693855082030399) we'll need to change the frontend flow to send loyaltyId
instead of cognitoId
.
The method
onSubmitPromoCode
calls the mutationpromotionValidatePromoCodeMutation
that will send thecognitoId
There is a mutation
redeemMutation
that send the loyaltyId, so we will add this mutation with some condition to send loyaltyId (to markets that want to use promo code at checkout, or to market that doesn’t use it and impact other markets).This condition can be a flag on sanity maybe.
Attention point
Is possible on Voucherify, configure a promo code with expiryDate
undefined, but on backend validate it and can receive an error, so it will need to use an “infinity“ expiryDate
, that doesn’t have an end date finish, so we will change a validate date loyalty flow.
Currency code:
We will change this condition to validate the expiry date just there is a valide date.
After these changes on frontend and backend
OBS:. This test was done, mocking the codes and APIs responses, using apollo studio
Calling LoyaltyValidatePromoCode
request:
{ "input": { "code": "8B9IKPQK", "loyaltyId": "ec5cec01-b41b-509b-9111-310ab5a18154", "shouldRedeem": true } }
response:
{ "data": { "loyaltyValidatePromoCode": { "code": "8B9IKPQK", "configId": "7bf2c11c-ec68-4d44-abd3-597b3967fcef", "isRedeemed": true, "isValid": true, "message": "", "personalizedOfferId": null, "reason": null, "shouldRedeem": null } } }
How to calculate the discount value
Send the offers sanityId to Winrest
They will register these
sanityId
on their system, and after that, we’ll use some offers with thesesanityId
registered, and Winrest will return the calculated offers correctlyWe already sent the
sanityId
offer to the backend (intl-partners-service
)
When the
intl-partners-service
calls the Winrest API, the integration will know how much will be the discountThe discount is always on the total value of the cart
How to configure a promotional code
To show the feature on checkout:
Enable feature flag:
ENABLE_PROMO_CODE_AT_CHECKOUT = 'enablePromoCodeAtCheckout'
After configuring sanity:
To create the promotional codes, we need to access Voucherify, this vendor is used current by PLK ES in production to create other promo codes on offers page;
