Systems and methods for providing an end to end customer portal

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

• configure a customer portal based on configuration settings received from a merchant system, the configuration settings indicating, using a portal session, a set of functions to be provided by the customer portal, wherein a schema of the portal session comprises a customer identifier (ID) of the customer, a secret string, a return URL, and a reference to the configuration settings, the customer ID and the return URL are extracted from the request to generate the portal session, and the URL comprises a copy of the secret string to differentiate the URL from a plurality of URLs corresponding to a plurality of other portal sessions;
• receive a request to generate the portal session, the portal session to act as a single application programing interface (API) endpoint for the set of functions to the customer portal;
• in response to receiving the request, generate the portal session and a portal session object, the portal session object comprising a uniform resource locator (URL) to provide access to the portal session;
• transmit the portal session object to the merchant system;
• in response to a portal access request made to the single API endpoint via the URL, provide to a customer system that made the portal access request, access to the customer portal via the portal session;
• receive, at the single API endpoint, an API call that requests the commerce platform to perform a function from the set of functions;
• translate, by the single API endpoint, the received API call to one or more backend API endpoints of the commerce platform;
• and
• transmit, by the single API endpoint to the one or more backend API endpoints, the received API call, causing the one or more backend API endpoints to perform the function.

A commerce platform comprising:

• a memory that stores configuration settings indicating a set of functions to be provided by a customer portal;
• and
• a processor coupled with the memory, the processor configured to:
• configure a customer portal based on configuration settings received from a merchant system, the configuration settings indicating, using a portal session, a set of functions to be provided by the customer portal, wherein a schema of the portal session comprises a customer identifier (ID) of the customer, a secret string, a return URL, and a reference to the configuration settings, the customer ID and the return URL are extracted from the request to generate the portal session, and the URL comprises a copy of the secret string to differentiate the URL from a plurality of URLs corresponding to a plurality of other portal sessions;
• receive a request to generate the portal session, the portal session to act as a single application programing interface (API) endpoint for the set of functions to the customer portal;
• in response to receiving the request, generate the portal session and a portal session object, the portal session object comprising a uniform resource locator (URL) to provide access to the portal session;
• transmit the portal session object to the merchant system;
• in response to a portal access request made to the single API endpoint via the URL, provide to a customer system that made the portal access request, access to the customer portal via the portal session;
• receive, at the single API endpoint, an API call that requests the commerce platform to perform a function from the set of functions;
• translate, by the single API endpoint, the received API call to one or more backend API endpoints of the commerce platform;
• and
• transmit, by the single API endpoint to the one or more backend API endpoints, the received API call, causing the one or more backend API endpoints to perform the function.
