Storefront Customers
Manage customers and data on BigCommerce-hosted storefronts. To work with headless storefronts, use the GraphQL Storefront API.
The REST Storefront API uses CORS (opens in a new tab) headers for authentication, and therefore has no required scopes. You do not need to send any BigCommerce-specific tokens with your requests to these endpoints.
For info about authenticating BigCommerce APIs, see Authentication and Example Requests.
