Cloud Configs for CIF- Store View

You can setup multi store views in Magneto and connect with AEM sites. Follow CIF-Add-On and create factory configurations for GraphQL. So let's start.

1) Create OSGI Configs for multi stores. for eg : you have 2 stores default and mystore then create 2 OSGI configs as per run-modes

In ui.config package , create json configs like below

com.adobe.cq.commerce.graphql.client.impl.GraphqlClientImpl~default.cfg.json

{
  "url": "https://localhost.magento2brand1.com/graphql",
  "identifier" : "default",
  "httpMethod": "POST",
  "allowHttpProtocol": "true",
  "connectionTimeout": 1000000,
  "requestPoolTimeout": 500000,
  "socketTimeout": 1000000
}

com.adobe.cq.commerce.graphql.client.impl.GraphqlClientImpl~mystore.cfg.json

{
  "url": "https://localhost.magento2brand2.com/graphql",
  "identifier" : "mystore",
  "httpMethod": "POST",
  "allowHttpProtocol": "true",
  "connectionTimeout": 1000000,
  "requestPoolTimeout": 500000,
  "socketTimeout": 1000000
}
