How to work with Items
A central concept in our items API is the concept of a catalogue. A catalogue is a self-describing data structure containing items.
Each catalogue is defined by one or more item structure, called item schemas. Items can be organised in a hierarchical way, defined as a catalogue tree.
The general workflow of this API is as follows:
Create a new item schema defining every attribute (or use an existing one)
Create a new category tree (or use an existing one)
Create a new catalogue version referencing an item schema and category tree (optional)
Send all the items to this new catalogue version
Activate this catalogue version
Keep sending updates to this catalogue version
Each step is described in more detail below in the following sections
