      The commercetools HTTP API is the core REST interface for programmatic access
      to all data and functionality within a Composable Commerce project. It covers
      a broad range of commerce resources including products, product types, categories,
      carts, orders, customers, payments, discounts, inventory, shipping methods,
      stores, and business units. All resources follow RESTful conventions using standard
      HTTP verbs and return JSON responses.

      The commercetools GraphQL API provides a flexible, network-efficient alternative
      to the HTTP API for querying and mutating Composable Commerce resources. It
      exposes a single endpoint and allows clients to request exactly the data they
      need, reducing over-fetching and minimizing round trips. The GraphQL API uses
      the same API clients, authentication tokens, and project scopes as the HTTP
      API.

      The commercetools Import API enables bulk importing of commerce data into a
      Composable Commerce project. It supports importing categories, product types,
      products, product variants, prices, inventory entries, orders, and customers.
      Imports are processed asynchronously through import containers, and the API
      provides endpoints for monitoring import operation status and handling validation
      errors.

    description: >-
      The commercetools Change History API provides a queryable audit log of all changes
      made to resources within a Composable Commerce project. It records mutations
      applied to resources such as products, orders, customers, discounts, and carts,
      along with metadata about who made the change and when. The API is hosted on
      separate regional endpoints and supports filtering by resource type, date range,
      user, and client.

  platform powering large-scale B2C, B2B, and marketplace digital commerce
  for enterprise brands. The platform exposes a broad API surface organized
  into the HTTP API (core REST interface), GraphQL API (flexible query and
  mutation alternative), Import API (bulk data ingestion), Change History
  API (audit log), Checkout API (managed checkout configuration), and
  Merchant Center Customizations API (custom UI extensions). It is
  complemented by official SDKs (TypeScript, Java, PHP, .NET, Python) and
  AsyncAPI-based subscriptions for event-driven integrations.
