What APIs are used to manage user sessions in Salesforce Commerce Cloud?

The Session APIs are specifically designed to manage user sessions within Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC). These APIs serve critical functions such as creating, retrieving, and terminating user sessions. When a user interacts with an e-commerce site, maintaining a session is paramount for tracking their activity and preferences, facilitating features like user authentication, shopping cart management, and personalized experiences.

In contrast, Catalog APIs are focused on managing product catalogs, including product details such as descriptions, prices, and availability. Customer APIs handle everything related to customer profiles and their details but do not specifically deal with session management. Lastly, Inventory APIs are used to manage stock levels and product availability, rather than managing user sessions.

Thus, the nature and functionality of Session APIs make them the correct choice for managing user sessions within SFCC, as they are expressly built for that purpose.
