Extend existing webservice definition

[HunkBeny]

Hi all!

 

I am in the process of creating a module for our e-commerce stores. Because we need some functionality relating to HS-codes, I added a field for this in the products tab via a custom module. I store HS-codes in the database, every product can have at most one HS-code. Our product managers create products via our ERP system, which adds these products to Prestashop via the webservice.

Now my question:

Is it possible to add my HS-code field to the schema of `Product`? I know that I can extend the webservice like this, but I rather just send my custom field via an existing endpoint rather than creating a new endpoint.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hello! You can use overrides to achieve the result. In the override file, you have to alter the definition of the given ObjectModel.

I was afraid of this, I rather not use overrides. But if this is the correct way, then I will do so. Thanks Krystian!

No needs to override. You have hooks to add additional data. Just create a module.

@Prestashop Addict to add a custom endpoint or to extend an existing one?
