B2B ecommerce

OrderCloud ships steady B2B-commerce API hygiene — Buyer Groups, Delivery Configs, multi-tab dev console.

b2b commercesitecoreapi hygienemarketplace primitivesmature platform
Current state
April added multi-tab support to the API Console (shared user context, tab-specific impersonation) plus custom role-group naming. March shipped Buyer Groups for managing similar buyers at scale in marketplaces, and tightened Message Senders to require a Delivery Config (with a renamed Mailchimp target) — a breaking model change that drops URL and SharedKey fields. The crawler also captured a changelog index page and a 'Loading...' placeholder.
Where it's heading
OrderCloud reads as a mature platform doing careful API-surface work under Sitecore: structural cleanup (Message Sender → DeliveryConfig), B2B-marketplace primitives (Buyer Groups), and developer-experience polish. No AI integrations visible in this window, no architectural pivots. Pace is unhurried, in line with an enterprise commerce backbone.
Prediction
Expect more API-surface refactoring on the way to a cleaner B2B model, eventual AI/MCP exposure as Sitecore consolidates its portfolio direction, and continued B2B marketplace primitives. Not a fast-mover.

    Added multi-tab support to API Console.

    Multi-tab support in the API Console: user context is shared across tabs while impersonation stays tab-specific. Plus custom role group naming. Useful developer-experience addition for the integrators who live in the console.

    Streamline buyer management in your marketplace by organizing similar buyers into groups, enabling you to manage catalog access, defaults…

    Buyer Groups let marketplace operators organize similar buyers and manage catalog access, defaults, and shared metadata at scale. Real B2B-marketplace primitive that reduces repetitive configuration.

    In order to improve reliability and performance, all Message Senders must now be used in combination with a Delivery Config.

    Breaking model change: Message Senders must now reference a Delivery Config rather than carry URL/SharedKey directly, and the DeliveryConfig target was renamed for Mailchimp. API hygiene that forces integrators to migrate, but cleaner architecturally.

    Crawler artifact: Loading placeholder

    Single 'Loading...' string captured as an entry. Crawler hit the page before content rendered.
