The REST APIs in Salesforce B2B Commerce support pass-through parameter handling by passing parameters through the service handlers. This means that any parameters that are not recognized by the REST API framework will be passed to the service handler class that implements the API logic. The service handler class can then use these parameters for custom logic or validation.

When creating a custom Lightning Web Component (LWC) for use in the Checkout Flow, a developer must set the target in the js-meta.xml file tolwc__FlowComponent. This target specifies that the LWC is intended for use within the flow component framework, allowing it to be utilized specifically in the context of Salesforce Flows, including those used in the checkout process. Salesforce documentation on developing custom LWCs for various targets would detail this requirement, ensuring that developers understand how to correctly package and deploy their components for the intended use case.

A best practice when passing query parameters from user interface to an apex controller is to query parameters should be properly sanitized by using JSINHTMLENCODE within the VisualForce Page or Component. This function will encode any special characters in the query parameters to prevent cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or SOQL injection attacks. For example, ccrz.ccRemoteActions.getProducts('{!JSINHTMLENCODE(searchTerm)}') will encode the searchTerm parameter before passing it to the apex controller.

To enable the ability to add new shipping and billing addresses during checkout, a developer should enable Buyer Managed Contact Point Addresses within the Shipping Address standard component in the Checkout subflow. The Buyer Managed Contact Point Addresses is a feature that allows customers to add, edit, or delete their shipping and billing addresses during checkout. The developer can enable this feature by setting the buyerManagedContactPointAddressesEnabled attribute to true in the Shipping Address standard component in the Checkout subflow. The Shipping Address standard component is a component that displays and collects the shipping address information for the cart or order. The Checkout subflow is a subflow that defines the steps and components for the checkout process in the storefront. Creating a new shipping address checkout subflow that utilizes the Buyer Managed Contact Point Addresses component is not a valid way to enable this feature, as there is no such component as Buyer Managed Contact Point Addresses. Enabling Buyer Managed Contact Point Addresses within Commerce Administration is not a valid way either, as this feature is not configurable in Commerce Administration. Creating a Lightning web component that enables this functionality and replaces the current shipping address screen within the Checkout subflow is not a valid way either, as this is unnecessary and complicated when there is already a standard component that supports this feature.
