Verified steps

  1. Identify the cartPredicate syntax: the DSL supports field paths like lineItems[].productType.id = "<uuid>" or lineItems[].categories contains any ("<uuid>") to target specific items
  2. Call POST /cart-discounts with cartPredicate, target (multiBuyLineItems or lineItems with a discountedQuantity/selector), value (relative with permyriad), sortOrder, and isActive:true
  3. Set requiresDiscountCode:false for automatic discounts or true if it should only apply when a discount code is entered; create a matching DiscountCode object if the latter
  4. Test the predicate by adding qualifying and non-qualifying items to a test cart and calling POST /carts/{id} with a recalculate update action; inspect discountedPrice on lineItems
  5. Monitor for predicate evaluation errors in the API response — invalid predicate syntax returns a 400 with a message describing the parse failure
