    description: >
      The OpenCart REST API enables external applications to communicate
      with an OpenCart store for managing products, categories, orders,
      customers, manufacturers, and returns. Authentication uses API
      username/key credentials with IP-allowlist enforcement. Webhooks
      are supported for order creation, order updates, product sync,
      and customer registration events.
