Bigcommerce Store Scenario: A product that a customer would like to purchase is out of stock. Is there a way to have the customer provide an e-mail address to automatically notify the customer that the product is available again?
Thanks in advance!
This already exists as an app for Bigcommerce called "In Stock Notify" since it isn't available as current functionality out of the box.
No, Bigcommerce does not have that feature built in.
The only workaround is to develop an app to do it using the Bigcommerce API.

I would like to discuss with you about a solution for an issue I`m having.
I have a marketplace, I want to allow Shopify sellers to sell on my marketplace.
I`m looking for the best solution to export the Shopify sellers products & Collections in a feed. I want to make this whole process to be automatic as possible. I dont want the sellers to have to deal with all the technical stuff.
Also, a feature the solution must contain is - I need to map the field once, to map the Shopify categories to my marketplace categories.
Do you know any solution, app or something that can help me?
For making your system automatic you can take reference about shopify webhooks Shopify webhooks

I would like to sell a few products on Shopify. The user should be able to select a product and fill a form. Then some of these values will be passed to an external API and the API returns the correct price. How to implement this in Shopify? Are there any Shopify apps that could support the development of this?
The development process has not yet begun, so I'm free to use any other shop builder out there.
There are some apps to make it possible so you can sell at different price for customers.
Shopify appstore app
Bold custom pricing
Wholesale pricing discount
But I don't think these apps will not perfectly satisfy your needs.
If I can suggest something, after customer fills a form and get a price, then you can make price of product show on the store, and at the same time you can make a request to change the price of that product by using Shopify product api. Then everytime customer comes to your store and buy products, the price will change and they will be able to purchage at different price. I think it will work.
In the end, I decided to use Stripe Checkout for this. The design is amazing and the setup is simple. Later I will most likely switch to Stripe.js and Stripe Elements to enable even more customization.
How can I tell shopify to fulfill the same product via amazon FBA if the person is in the US and to fullfill via oberlo if international? Is there a simple way to do this?
You can use FulfillmentOrder API to change fulfillment location.
I am trying to transfer an e-commerce website to Shopify and was wondering if anyone has had experience creating orders with Shopify API? There are some 3rd party apps that provide such a service but none of them are working properly in my case.
You can import orders to your Shopify store using this API call: https://help.shopify.com/api/reference/order#create
If your a developer trying to do this you can just setup a simple, local run application, that would do this for you, I'm a developer but also run a Shopify website and do something similar with Ruby.
If you an end user the only option you really have is to hire someone to build a private app for you, depending on what excatly you need to achieve its not overly difficult.

There is lots of help out there..
With Shopify API you can create customers and Orders, Here orders can be created through the API, but no payment information will be collected, and no transaction performed. You can mark the order with any payment status.
For details, you can check Shopify Orders API
https://shopify.dev/docs/admin-api/rest/reference/orders/order
Also, along with orders, you can import Customers using Customers API endpoints i.e
https://shopify.dev/docs/admin-api/rest/reference/customers
And also can update the Status of your newly imported orders to fulfillment using

Is it possible to see if a user purchased an item you've listed on your site?
I want to be able to keep track of items a user has purchased from amazon through my site. Is this possible?
i think this can be implemented using a remote shopping cart.
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/latest/DG/CreatingaRemoteShoppingCart.html
Ofcourse it will need some code on your end to relate a user in your site with a shopping cart id.
