Walkthrough Product Design and Ordering
This page contains an overview of the product design process using the Safsira Design Lab, as well as how to order that product via the Safsira API.
First, we will assume you have created an account on Safsira and have logged in. If you have not done so, please do so here (opens in a new tab). After you have logged in, you will be redirected to the Safsira Homepage (opens in a new tab). From here, you can navigate to the Catalog (opens in a new tab) by clicking on the "Catalog" link in the navigation bar.
Designing a Product
From the Catalog, choose the product you want to design and order. Once in the product detail page, select the variant you want and click Start Designing.
You will be redirected to the Design Lab.
Please note: the Safsira Design Lab is a work in progress. We are constantly adding new features and improving the user experience. We strive to update images and information in this guide as soon as changes are made. However, the core functionality of the Design Lab will remain the same.
In the Design Lab, upload your artwork or choose an existing file from the library. You can edit artwork colors and save artwork versions to the library, as well. Clicking on any artwork will place it on the canvas, which represents the actual imprint area on the product. You can move and resize artwork on the canvas to achieve your desired look. In the Product section, you can also change the name of the product and add tags, allowing for easy identification in the future and across applications.
Once you are satisfied with your design, click Finish Design to save your design and create your Custom Product. After the Custom Product is created, you will be able to view it (and all your designs) under My Products.
Creating a developer app
To be able to use the Safsira API, you need to create a developer app and get authentication credentials. To do so, go to the developer apps page (opens in a new tab) and click on Create App. You can find more information about developer apps here.
Getting your product id
You can get your Product id several ways.
- Get it from the product detail page on the website:
Click on the Copy icon to copy the product id to the clipboard.
- Get it from the API using the
GET https://api.safsira.com/v1/custom-products/endpoint. You can find more information about this endpoint here.
Ordering a product
To order products, you need to use the POST https://api.safsira.com/v1/orders/ endpoint. You can find a guide on how to order here.
Getting your order information
Once you get a response back from the orders endpoint, you'll have an order id that you can use to get information about your order via GET https://api.safsira.com/v1/orders/:id. You can learn more about this endpoint here.
If you want to get real-time updates on the status of your order, from production through to shipping, you can use the webhooks feature.
