1.2 - Products
A configurable product has no specific requirements. It just needs to have a 3D model (BMA / BM3).
You can follow the general guidelines about geometry and materials: Geometry and Materials 🔗
For product setup: Products 🔗
Once your product is created, you can load it in the Product Configurator using its ID. If you created some editable parameters, you will be able to use them to configure your product.
A product without any parameter can be loaded. You can disable the UI and use the Product Configurator as a simple 3D viewer.
Product ordering
When the products are displayed in a list (a list of legs, a list of colors...), they are sorted in the alphabetical order.
If you want to sort the products in a specific order, fill the searchScore attribute on the products.
The products with the higher search score will appear first.
Parameter ordering
When editable parameters are displayed, they are sorted in the alphabetical order (using their translated display name).
If you want to sort the parameters in a specific order, fill the indexUI attribute on the parameters.
It can be done at a product level, or using the Parameter Definitions. 🔗
The parameters with the lower indexUI will be displayed first. If two parameters share the same indexUI,
they will be sorted using alphabetical order.
Parameters with the indexUI attribute not filled will be displayed after parameters with a value set.
Exceptions
When editing a modular product, 🔗 the parameter used to replace or delete a module will always be displayed first.
