A checkout expires 30 minutes after it was created. Requires the `orders` permission at `read`. An API key holds a permission at the lower of its own level (`read` for a read-only key) and its holder's role; a key without it is refused with 403. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/commerce-v1.openapi.json get /v1/commerce/checkouts/{id} openapi: 3.0.3 info: description: >- Public REST API for COPE vendor integrations.
