Add Checkout Id to Notifications Code

[Kathi97]

Hello!

We'd like to add the Checkout ID (#14 figures) to our notifications. Preferably next to the order ID. 

Unfortunately I can't find a fitting property to add in the code. 

Thank you in advance!

Kind regards, 

Kathi

Hey @Kathi97 

Du hast hier die Deutsche Community erreicht, but we can continue in English too, that's no problem! 😉

Can you describe what you mean by Checkout ID ("#14 figures") and for what purpose you want to pull this ID? Steps to see a Checkout_ID:

• Go into an order in your admin.
• Add .json to the end of the URL in the Browser Address bar at the top and hit "Enter".
• Then you should see the .json of the order with those details as depicted here:

Here's an example of how you could add a variable if it was available:

{% if checkout.id %}
  Checkout ID: {{ checkout.id }}
{% endif %}

But it's not sure that the Checkout ID is available as a liquid variable, and therefore it might be necessary to implement a more complex solution, perhaps involving the use of the Shopify API to link the order with its respective Checkout ID.

This would likely involve custom coding and potentially an external server or service. If you're considering this kind of solution, you might need to work with a Shopify developer or consultant to implement it correctly.

Remember that any changes in the notification templates will apply to all notifications of that type going forward, so make sure to test thoroughly to ensure that you're getting the desired result.

You can see the full list of available Shopify variables and properties here and also here.

Hope that helps! 😉

Hallo Gabe,
Deutsch ist viel besser 😄
Vielen Dank für deine Antwort! Hintergrund der Frage ist: Wir benötigen bei unseren Rechnungen und Mitteilungen eine übereinstimmende Nummer. Unsere Rechnungen werden in Plentymarkets erstellt. Plenty zieht sich jedoch die Checkout ID als Auftragsnummer. Damit also keine Verwirrung entsteht wollten wir zusätzlich zu der Auftrags ID noch die Checkout ID in den Mitteilungen hinzufügen.
Ich würde die von dir genannte Property trotzdem gerne mal ausprobieren. Vielleicht funktioniert es ja.
Ansonsten wende ich mich an einen Entwickler.
Vielen Dank nochmal!
Liebe Grüße,
Kathi
