Key points

  • Extend Knowledge Content showcases the extensibility of the Fluent Order Management Platform beyond standard capabilities.

Overview

Extend Knowledge Content showcases the ‘art of the possible’ when using the Fluent Management Platform’s many extensibility features and tools to enable a range of use cases that cannot otherwise be met using the standard capabilities of the Fluent Management Platform.

The Extend Knowledge Content does not form part of the Fluent Management Platform including related development and other materials such as SDKs (Platform) or any Platform documentation including all materials on the docs.fluentcommerce.com site except those expressly identified as Extend Knowledge Content (Documentation). 

Extend Knowledge Content is subject to a different licensing regime and terms to those that apply to the Platform and Documentation. For clarity, the rights of use and licences to the Platform and Documentation are set out in and governed by the terms and conditions of the written agreements between Fluent Commerce and its customers and partners, and not the Extend Knowledge Content licences.  

Extend Knowledge Content licences, disclaimers and risk

At the end of each page or or how-to guide (or other material) set out in the Extend Knowledge Content site you will find the following licence notice:

Neither of these licences apply to any content on any other page that can be reached via a link on this page unless otherwise specified on that other page. If you wish to use any of the Extend Knowledge Content, you must do so in compliance with the licenses referred to above and the Extend Knowledge Content site policy, including attribution in the manner set out on this page.
