Order Subscriptions is now live!
We are happy to announce that one of the most requested features is now available: Order Subscriptions.
What are Order Subscriptions?
With Order Subscriptions, bol automatically sends a notification whenever an order is created or changed. This means you no longer need to continuously poll the Order API.
The benefits of Order Subscriptions:
- Real‑time order updates
Receive instant notifications as soon as an order is created or changed, without delays caused by polling intervals. - Faster order processing
Orders can be picked up and processed immediately, resulting in shorter handling times and faster fulfilment. - Reduced risk of missed cancellations
Real-time notifications make it less likely that customer cancellation requests are overlooked, helping prevent unnecessary shipments. - No more continuous polling
Order Subscriptions eliminate the need to repeatedly call the API to check for updates, making integrations more efficient and easier to maintain. - Lower API load and improved overall platform stability
Fewer API calls reduce infrastructure usage on your side and contribute to improved overall platform stability of bol.
