DeliveryAddress information and selection guidance.

Configure and validate assistance

  1. Open Configuration → Shopping Assistance.
  2. Review enablement, provider and model; save credentials through the supported form.
  3. Run provider/readiness checks.
  4. Test representative reads and enabled actions.
  5. Verify resulting records; investigate with request IDs.

Understand action boundaries

  • Actions require identity, permissions, explicit product selection and current facts.
  • Unknown product facts remain unknown.
  • Chat wording alone never places an order.
  • Compound cart/wishlist execution requires separate gates, persistence and receipts.
  • Merchant queries retain operator permissions.

Investigate an assistant issue

Check request ID, intended product, readiness and customer context. Confirm the operational result; a completed stream is insufficient.
