Hybris_Architecture.svg

Orange: Global‑e

Global‑e handles:

  • The currency conversion

  • The checkout for Global‑e managed countries

  • Order notifications for orders managed by Global‑e

Global‑e manages the following main website components:

  • The welcome popup

  • The country selector

  • The checkout iframe

Checkout:

During the checkout, the Global‑e add-on posts the following to the Global‑e system via the SendCartV2 API.

The customer is redirected to a checkout page checkoutDisplay.jsp, in which Global‑e injects HTML via an iframe.

Green: Custom Global‑e add-on functionality:

  • Globaleaddon is used for front-end changes.

  • globalecore and globalefacades are used to communicate with the Global‑e API.

  • globaleendpoint is used to receive order update notifications.

  • globalepromotions is used for custom Global‑e promotions.

  • globalebackoffice is used for Backoffice modifications.

Note

Important spring beans are aliased or overwritten by the Global‑e logic. This includes the calculationService and europe1.manager.
