How to setup Venia store in AEM ?

For one of my poc, I am planning to setup commerce cockpit and CIF components and I want to use Venia commerce store to setup(https://venia.magento.com/). I have downloaded and installed the package from https://github.com/adobe/aem-cif-guides-venia. I am trying to setup cloud config

 

Here is my com.adobe.cq.commerce.graphql.client.impl.GraphqlClientImpl config

GraphQL Service Identifier - https://venia.magento.com

 

Commerce Cloud Conf

I guess I should update "Catalog Root Category Identifier" . Does anyone know what should be the value for this field ?

Setting up the Venia store can be a headache, honestly. I stumbled onto a resource that helped—might save you some time: image-to-base64

    Hi @mario248 


    in your configuration com.adobe.cq.commerce.graphql.client.impl.GraphqlClientImpl config

    the default http method should be POST

        As @mukeshyadav_ you need to check the value represent the root category id in Magento store it can be "Mg==" or "Mw==" try with these two values and also in your configuration remove the default http headers and also check the advanced tab configuration GraphQL Proxy Path * and also check Enable Catalog UID Support to true

          Hi @mario248 ,

          Mg== is encode value of 2 https://base64.guru/decode/Mg==

          This value represent the root category id in Magento store.

          You can try with this default value itself without changing.

          You may refer below for details

            Thanks for your response. I see use the default config but commerce cockpit is loading

            http://localhost:4502/commerce.html

             

            I dont see any error in error log. It tells "The configuration venia is not available or did not return a valid schema". Looks like I have valid config but how do we check schema? Is there way to check valid schema ?

              Hi @mario248 ,

              We can see the product is loading with default root category id 2 i.e. Mg==

              Please change the endpoint(graphql service URL) to https://venia.magento.com/graphql

              that is append /graphql

              "data": {
              "storeConfig": {
              "store_code": "default",
              "root_category_uid": "Mg==",
              "__typename": "StoreConfig"
              }
              }
              }

              Thanks
