Seller Not Logged in Issue in Purpletree
Multivendor API

• Most of the APIs provided with Complete Multi
  Vendor Marketplace for OpenCart is available for
  Seller only, however, some customer Data can also
  be fetched which contains Seller information and
  for detail, you can view the detailed
  Documentation for API for Purpletree Multivendor
  Marketplace at https//s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com
  /pts-doc/purpletree-multivendor-api-opencart.pdf.
• For all the Seller APIs to work properly Seller
  must be logged in, and the session needs to be
  maintained with each API request. In-Browser
  customer/seller Session is maintained by the web
  browser itself, but in the case of API, there is
  no web browser involved in requests. Each API
  request can be made through any Application so to
  maintain the session you have to write your own
  set of logic for that in your application coding.
  For customer and seller, the API assumes that
  opencart session is available with
  seller/customer logged in. Values from opencart
  session are used to fetch corresponding data.

• Complete Multi Vendor Marketplace for
  OpenCart doesnt come with Seller Login API or
  Customer Login API. As we use customer session
  only for getting seller details, we assume that
  the Customer which is the seller is already
  logged in and application is managing the
  customer session accordingly. So to use the API
  for Complete Multi Vendor Marketplace for
  OpenCart Seller must be Logged in and if the
  seller is logged and you want to get any data
  from Seller you can simply use any API of Seller
  which is available in our extension as explained
  in Documentation of API for Purpletree
  Multivendor Marketplace.
• If you want to Create a Mobile Application using
  Purpletree multivendor Data, you can simply buy
  our Mobile Application for Opencart 3
  (Multilingual) which is a prebuilt app you just
  need to purchase and send us the details of your
  Opencart site. Complete Multi Vendor Marketplace
  for OpenCart is supported in our Mobile
  application if it is also purchased. This means
  if purchase Mobile Application for Opencart 3
  (Multilingual)   and Complete Multi Vendor
  Marketplace for OpenCart then you can use the app
  from the seller side also as seller options would
  be available in the Mobile Application.

• Technical Solution suggestion - If you are using
  any other application means other than Purpletree
  Mobile app you need to maintain customer session
  as by sending Session ID with each request, means
  when Seller/Customer is logged in to their
  account using your API (Please Note this API is
  not provided by Purpletree). Get Session ID in
  response from Customer login and use that Session
  ID with each API request and handle that
  session-id in opencart accordingly. If you use it
  properly then you would get customer or seller
  Data which request Logged in by the
  Customer/Seller to fetch that Data. OR you can
  simply Buy our Mobile Application for Opencart 3
  (Multilingual) which handles all the requests and
  mobile app is one of the best ready to launch
  apps provided for Opencart.

• Along with Session ID with each Purpletree
  Multivendor API, you needs to send an extra
  parameter in the header for API to work properly
  which would be purpletreemultivendor  and the
  value would be set as below from admin
• Login to Admin panel gt System gt Users gt API.
• Create a new API, enter the username
  as purpletreemultivendor  and generate an API key
  and use this API key in value for a header in
  each API request.
• Set the Status to Enable and add your IP address
  or any other as it is required filed in API and
  Save it
