When users enter their address information during registration, provide an option to save the address as their default address. This default address can be used for future transactions involving shipping or billing. 📦💼
According to the commercetools CustomerDraft documentation, the properties defaultShippingAddress
and defaultBillingAddress
can be used to store default addresses. You can either store individual address IDs or store the complete address information in these properties. 🗂️
For example, if a user sets an address as their default shipping address during registration, you can either save the address ID to the defaultShippingAddress
property, or save the full address details. 🏠
- Include a checkbox or a toggle switch next to the address input fields during the registration process. The checkbox could read 'Set as default address' to make it clear for the user. ☑️
- In the backend, ensure the process of setting a default address occurs simultaneously with the creation of the user account. When a user sets an address as the default, use the commercetools API to store this information by making a POST request to the
customers
endpoint with thedefaultShippingAddress
and/ordefaultBillingAddress
properties set in the request body. ⏩
- Provide clear labeling next to the checkbox or toggle switch indicating that this will set the address as the default for future transactions. 🏷️
