Commands and methods for generating a cache key

A guide to each method used to generate the cache key. Fewer methods in the cache key will result in fewer system resources required to cache the commands.

Method Definition
getCacheKey The unique identifier of the business object. It can be a category ID, a catalog entry ID, or a marketing content ID
getStoreId The unique identifier of the store in which the activity is running
getLanguageId The ID of the language in which to display the result to the customer
getActivityId The unique ID of the activity which returned this business object. This will be used in the ClickInfo URL
getCatalogId The unique ID of the current catalog
getContracts The unique IDs of the contracts to which the customer is entitled. This is required when there are contracts that entitle specific products, or give specific pricing to customers. The catalog web services will only return entitled categories and products, and the associated product contract pricing, so we need to know that the customer is entitled to this business object, and that we are displaying the correct prices
getActiveOrg The unique ID of the organization to which the customer is currently associated. This is required when there are contracts that are entitled to specific organizations
getMemberGroups The unique IDs of the member groups to which the customer explicitly belongs. This is required when there are contracts that are entitled to specific member groups
getExperimentId The unique ID of the experiment which returned this business object. This will be used in the ClickInfo URL
getTestElementId The unique ID of the experiment test element which returned this business object. This will be used in the ClickInfo URL
