What it is
The UCP Server Bridge is an integration module for PrestaShop that implements the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP).
UCP is a REST API standard that exposes PrestaShop's checkout and order management endpoints to external platforms and applications.
Every request is verified with an API secret, and activity is recorded in logs.
