Hi everyone.

Let's say, that I have two option category in my product (with below options for each of them):

Operating system:
- iOS
- Android
Device:
- Phone
- Tablet
- Laptop

And I have only one variant: iOS + Phone.

How can I check, if for selected options product contains variant? What API method's should I use? I need it to perform come custom functionality.

For example:

user select: Android + Tablet - return null
user select: iOS + Phone- return SKUInfo

Are you wanting to check the item on the detail page before submission or are you wanting to check it in the Shopping Cart? If you want to check it on the page, you will need to access the Ecommerce API > Product Helper > IsOptionAllowed

Otherwise in the ShoppingCart, check out the ShoppingCartInfoProvider on the EcommerceProvider API

so you want to do this when the product is being submitted to the ShoppingCart correct? Then you need to look at the ShoppingCartInfo Provider and override the SetShoppingCartItemInternal method to take a look at the options that are being sent and change the SKU information if needed.
