Use Sitecore Headless Services without a Sitecore SDK
A rendering SDK can vastly simplify the consumption of Layout Data from Sitecore and enable dynamic component construction with Sitecore Placeholders. However, any platform that understands JSON data can consume Sitecore-provided content and layout information directly from the Sitecore Headless Services APIs. Therefore, it is not mandatory to use a rendering SDK provided by Sitecore to display Sitecore content and layout information.
If you are using Headless Services without a rendering SDK, you do not have support for integrating your applications with Experience Editor.
To retrieve Sitecore data through Headless Services without a rendering SDK:
-
Deploy a JSS application configuration to
/App_Config/Include
in Sitecore. For examples of application configurations, see the files in the/sitecore/config
directory of any of the JSS sample applications provided by Sitecore.
We recommend using Sitecore Experience Edge for production data delivery.
