# Using Anypoint Studio to Configure Salesforce Commerce Cloud B2C Data Connector

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

Anypoint Studio (Studio) editors help you design and update your Mule applications, properties, and
configuration files.

To add and configure a connector in Studio:

1.  [Create a Mule project](#create-mule-project).

2.  [Add the connector to your Mule project](#add-connector-to-project).

3.  [Configure a source for the connector’s flow](#configure-input-source).

4.  [Add a connector operation to the flow](#add-connector-operation).

5.  [Configure a global element for the connector](#configure-global-element).

When you run the connector, you can view the app log to check for problems, as described in
[View the App Log](#view-app-log).

If you are new to configuring connectors in Studio, see
[Using Anypoint Studio to Configure a Connector](https://docs.mulesoft.com/connectors/introduction/intro-config-use-studio).
If, after reading this topic, you need additional information about the connector fields, see the
[B2C Data Connector Reference](https://docs.mulesoft.com/commerce-cloud-b2c-data-connector/latest/commerce-cloud-b2c-data-connector-reference).

## Create a Mule Project

In Studio, create a new Mule project in which to add and configure the connector:

1.  In Studio, select **File > New > Mule Project**.

2.  Enter a name for your Mule project and click **Finish**.

## Add the Connector to Your Mule Project

Add <connector name> to your Mule project to automatically populate the XML code with the
connector’s namespace and schema location and to add the required dependencies to the project’s
`pom.xml` file:

1.  In the **Mule Palette** view, click **(X) Search in Exchange**.

2.  In the **Add Dependencies to Project** window, type `commerce cloud b2c` in the search field.

3.  Click **Commerce Cloud B2C Data Connector** in **Available modules**.

4.  Click **Add**.

5.  Click **Finish**.

Adding a connector to a Mule project in Studio does not make that connector available to other
projects in your Studio workspace.

## Configure a Source

A source initiates a flow when a specified condition is met. You can configure one of these input
sources to use with B2C Data Connector:

- **HTTP > Listener**  
  Initiates a flow each time it receives a request on the configured host and port

- **Scheduler**  
  Initiates a flow when a time-based condition is met

For example, to configure an HTTP listener, follow these steps:

1.  In the **Mule Palette** view, select **HTTP > Listener**.

2.  Drag **Listener** to the Studio canvas.

3.  On the **Listener** configuration screen, optionally change the value of the **Display Name**
    field.

4.  Specify a value for the **Path** field.

5.  Click the plus sign (**+**) next to the **Connector configuration** field to configure a global
    element that can be used by all instances of the HTTP listener in the app.

6.  On the **General** tab, specify the connection information for the connector.

7.  On the **TLS** tab, optionally specify the TLS information for the connector.

8.  On the **Advanced** tab, optionally specify reconnection information, including a reconnection
    strategy.

9.  Click **Test Connection** to confirm that Mule can connect with the specified server.

10. Click **OK**.

## Add a Connector Operation to the Flow

When you add a connector operation to your flow, you immediately define a specific operation for
that connector to perform.

To add an operation for B2C Data Connector, follow these steps:

1.  In the **Mule Palette** view, select **B2C Data Connector** and then select the desired
    operation.

2.  Drag the operation onto the Studio canvas and to the right of the input source.

## Configure a Global Element for the Connector

When you configure a connector, it’s best to configure a global element that all instances of that
connector in the app can use. Configuring a global element requires you to provide the
authentication credentials that the connector requires to access the target Commerce Cloud Data API
system. B2C Data Connector supports Oauth2 Application Connection Provider authentication for
connections.

To configure the global element for B2C Data Connector, follow these steps:

1.  Select the operation in the Studio canvas.

2.  In the configuration screen for the operation, click the plus sign (+) next to the **Connector
    configuration** field to access the global element configuration fields.

3.  On the **General** tab, in **Connection**, select the **Oauth 2 Application Connection
    Provider** authentication method.

4.  Configure the following fields:

    - **Base Uri**  
      URI that accesses the Data API

    - **Client Id**  
      ID of the client account created with Salesforce Commerce

    - **Client Secret**  
      Secret of the client account created with Salesforce

    - **Token URL**  
      Access token URL

    - **Scopes**  
      Scopes for access to the Data API

      The following image shows an example of the **OAuth 2 Application Connection Provider**
      configuration:

      ![OAuth2 Application Connection Provider authentication configuration](/mulesoft/current/en-us/commerce-cloud-b2c-data-connector/latest/_images/data-api-connector-oauth2-configuration.jpg)

    You can reference a configuration file that contains ANT-style property placeholders
    (recommended), or you can enter your authorization credentials in the global configuration
    properties. For information about the benefits of using property placeholders and how to
    configure them, see
    [Anypoint Connector Configuration](https://docs.mulesoft.com/connectors/introduction/intro-connector-configuration-overview).

    \+ This example adds credentials to the application properties file and references it using
    placeholders.

5.  On the **Advanced** tab, optionally specify reconnection information, including a reconnection
    strategy.

6.  Click **Test Connection** to confirm that Mule can connect with the specified server.

    ![Test connection returning a Test connection successful message](/mulesoft/current/en-us/commerce-cloud-b2c-data-connector/latest/_images/data-api-connector-oauth2-test-connection.jpg)

7.  Click **OK**.

A successful OAuth2 Application Connection Provider configuration looks like this:

```xml
   <commerce-cloud-dataapi:config name="Commerce_Cloud_Data_Connector_Config" doc:name="Commerce Cloud Data Connector Config" >
		<commerce-cloud-dataapi:am-oauth2-connection baseUri="${data.baseUri}" >
			<commerce-cloud-dataapi:oauth-client-credentials clientId="${data.clientId}" clientSecret="${data.clientSecret}" tokenUrl="${data.tokenUrl}" scopes="${data.scopes}"/>
		</commerce-cloud-dataapi:am-oauth2-connection>
   </commerce-cloud-dataapi:config>
```

## View the App Log

To check for problems, you can view the app log as follows:

- If you’re running the app from Anypoint Platform, the output is visible in the Anypoint Studio
  console window.

- If you’re running the app using Mule from the command line, the app log is visible in your OS
  console.

Unless the log file path is customized in the app’s log file (`log4j2.xml`), you can also view the
app log in the default location `MULE_HOME/logs/<app-name>.log`.

## Next Step

After you configure a global element and connection information, you can try the
[example](https://docs.mulesoft.com/commerce-cloud-b2c-data-connector/latest/commerce-cloud-b2c-data-connector-examples) for the connector.
