We wanted to keep only the core BigCommerce API integration in the multi-platform app, so the multi-platform app does not become a dumping yard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Approach &#8211; How we do&nbsp;it?<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"452\" height=\"365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.botreetechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Bigcommercestores.jpg\" alt=\"BigCommerce API integration\" class=\"wp-image-13816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.botreetechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Bigcommercestores.jpg 452w, https:\/\/www.botreetechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Bigcommercestores-300x242.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 452px) 100vw, 452px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>We have created a new\u00a0single click application\u00a0to handle the BigCommerce store&#8217;s app installation and setup flow, and implemented BigCommerce API integration with the multiplatform app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This separates the setup process app from the core application. And BigCommerce&#8217;s flexible API allows access to the required dataset from the connected store which the multiplatform app wants to use!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have used the same concept uses by BigCommerce here &#8211; IFrame! Our team has implemented the architecture in a manner where though both the apps are separate, but the end user &#8211; Store owner\/user &#8211; will see everything in the same screen when the end user loads the single click app in their browser!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No need to login to the application or traverse to another page, user will be signed-in secretly and have a seamless user
