CMS Data

When includeCmsData=true, Plato looks for CMS entries related to MenuProduct. The cmsData object is grouped by CMS database identifier: 
{
  "cmsData": {
    "product_badges": [
      {
        "id": "entry_123",
        "label": {
          "en": "Popular"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}
Set includeCmsData=false when you only need the core product fields.

​
Notes

  • Products default to published=true.
  • Price filtering is applied against product price options.
  • Use slug for product detail pages.
  • Use ids when another system already knows the product ids.
