Hello, is there any update regarding this issue? Adding multiple items to cart is a good feature to have :)

@khuenqdev the issue is opened since the long time. You need to write custom APIs for it. One API for Logged-in customer and one for guest.

Yeah, it seems there's already a generic API for this kind of action that's actually update a quote with multiple items in it. The weird thing is the route actually refers to customer's cart/quote but you don't really need to login to use this API. Here's the API and sample request data:

[PUT] /V1/carts/mine

{ "quote": { "id": {{quote_id}}, "items": [ { "sku": "24-MB02", "qty": 2, "product_option": { "extension_attributes": {} }, "quote_id": {{quote_id}} }, { "sku": "24-MB04", "qty": 4, "product_option": { "extension_attributes": {} }, "quote_id": {{quote_id}} } ], "customer": { "id": 1, "email": "[email protected]", "firstname": "Veronica", "lastname": "Costello", "store_id": 1 }, "billing_address": { "firstname": "Veronica", "lastname": "Costello", "customer_id": 1, "customer_address_id": 1, "telephone": "(555) 229-3326", "country_id": "US", "postcode": "49628-7978", "region_id": 33, "region_code": "MI", "region": "Michigan", "street": [ "6146 Honey Bluff Parkway" ], "city": "Calder", "same_as_billing": 1, "save_in_address_book": 1 }, "customer_note": "", "store_id": 1, "extension_attributes": {} } }
