The Order Object
Orders are a core part of Crystallize. The order object has the following key components: Customer, Cart, Payment, Total, and other additional information. Let's take a look at each of these.
In order to perform these operations, ensure that you have the proper authentication (if necessary) and user permissions.
Customer Details
Once a customer places an order, the order is pushed to Crystallize. Here, we store the customer’s name, birthdate, contact details, and addresses (shipping and billing address). The example below shows what the Customer type looks like:

Metadata and Additional Information
An order can contain more information aside from the what is contained in the fields discussed above. Any meta information provided with the order can be accessed via the meta field. The same goes for any additional information as well.
