Does BC Support JSONP

Report · Nov 25, 2014

I want to use BC to generate some JSON data that will be retrieved by a 3rd party app outside of the BC site domain.
Is this possible at all? I assume the use of JSONP is needed, but does BC allow this or is there a workaround?

You don't need JSONP to retrieve data from BC. JSONP is used when making

cross domain ajax calls. For example if you were to POST or PUT something

to BC using Ajax from another site.

Thanks for your comment Mario.
Yes, I am wanting to retrieve data from BC from an external app using AJAX that is not on the same domain.

Hmmm... I can't see 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *' inside BC's headers so

I don't think it will work. I'm sorry but I've never had to do it. I think

BC allows it only for some views, like the URLs used by apps, but not for

the standard frontend views. I might be wrong though.

Basically impossible until the new client aide API comes on, BC will only inject information server side into files with HTML extensions and you can't make (currently) a page template to output something that looks like a JS page without BC also injecting a <HTML><HEAD> information and killing your chance at dynamic javascript.

The only other way would be pulling the information via the SOAP API and using that on the remote site (injected into the page or whatever).
