customerCart query

The customerCart query returns the active cart for the logged-in customer. If the cart does not exist, the query creates one. The customer’s authorization token must be specified in the headers.

The customerCart query differs from the cart query in the following ways:

• The customerCart query must be run on behalf of a logged-in customer. If you run this query on behalf of a guest, an exception will be thrown.
• The cart query requires a cart_id value as input. The customerCart query does not take any input parameters.

You can define the query to return the id attribute. You can use the value of this attribute as the destination_cart_id input parameter in the mergeCarts mutation. (The mergeCarts mutation provides the ability to merge a guest cart with the logged-in customer’s cart.)

If you know the value of the logged-in customer’s cart ID, you can allow the customer to start an order on one device and complete it on another.
