#accumulate_loyalty_points(account_id:, body:) ⇒ AccumulateLoyaltyPointsResponse Hash

Adds points earned from the base loyalty program to a loyalty account.

  • If you are using the Orders API to manage orders, you only provide the

`order_id`. The endpoint reads the order to compute points to add to the buyer's account.

  • If you are not using the Orders API to manage orders,

you first perform a client-side computation to compute the points. For spend-based and visit-based programs, you can first call [CalculateLoyaltyPoints]($e/Loyalty/CalculateLoyaltyPoints) to compute the points that you provide to this endpoint. This endpoint excludes additional points earned from loyalty promotions. account]($m/LoyaltyAccount) ID to which to add the points. containing the fields to POST for the request. See the corresponding object definition for field details.

Parameters:

  • account_id (String) —

    Required parameter: The [loyalty

  • body (AccumulateLoyaltyPointsRequest) —

    Required parameter: An object

Returns:

  • (AccumulateLoyaltyPointsResponse Hash) —

    response from the API call
