Choosing between `@salesforce/commerce/api` and Apex for storefront operations determines how efficiently your Lightning Web Component fetches data, manages state, and enforces security. Storefront APIs are the optimized, built-in path for most commerce interactions, while Apex serves as a fallback for custom logic that the native APIs cannot handle.

Core information
  • Salesforce Commerce enforces a strict API priority order to maximize performance: Data Providers for server-side rendering, Commerce Client APIs (`@salesforce/commerce/api`) for client-side operations, and Apex controllers as a final fallback.
More details and nuances
  • Calling Connect APIs directly via `fetch()` or `XmlHttpRequest` bypasses the Commerce Runtime optimizations and should be avoided; always route requests through the Commerce Client APIs.
