# Lems B2B API

Bridge to Brands is a product of RunOps Inc.

Bridge to Brands reads live warehouse availability, dealer price and retail price from the Lems dealer portal (Elastic Suite) and places fill-in and drop-ship orders within your limits (placed from Bridge until verified) through one normalized REST API and MCP server. Availability is returned per colourway, by size, width and delivery window.

An agent connected to Bridge to Brands can search Lems’s catalog, read live availability and price, and place a fill-in or drop-ship order within your limits — or, until the brand is verified for placing, stage it for you to review and place in Bridge.

Lems sells barefoot and minimalist footwear to independent retailers through the Lems dealer portal (Elastic Suite). Buyers use it to check what is in the warehouse now, what lands in later delivery windows, and what each colourway costs at dealer and retail price.

Bridge to Brands signs in to that portal with your store's own Lems dealer login (entered once in the web app, never through an API key) and turns it into the same normalized products, availability grids, ship-tos and orders every other brand returns. Your agents, code and spreadsheets do not need to know how the Lems portal is built.

## Questions

### Does Lems have a B2B API for retailers?

As of 16 October 2026, Bridge to Brands gives authorized Lems dealers API and agent access to their own account: we connect to the Lems dealer portal (Elastic Suite) with the store's dealer login and expose availability, dealer and retail price, fill-in and drop-ship ordering through a normalized REST API and an MCP server.

### Can I check Lems wholesale availability by API?

Yes. As of 16 October 2026, GET /v1/brands/lems/products/{style_id}/availability returns the Lems availability grid per colourway: size and width columns by delivery window (at-once and future), with quantities as the portal shows them, order limits, dealer and retail price, and an as_of timestamp.

### Can I place Lems drop-ship orders through an API?

Yes. As of 16 October 2026, POST /v1/orders with kind "drop_ship" places a Lems order to a consumer address in the Lems dealer portal (Elastic Suite) where the brand is verified and you allow it, and otherwise stages it there for you to review and place in Bridge. Bridge to Brands checks the brand's rules first: a PO the portal accepts.

### Does Bridge to Brands place Lems orders in the portal?

As of 16 October 2026, Bridge to Brands places Lems orders in the Lems dealer portal (Elastic Suite) where the brand's submit path is verified and you have turned it on, within your caps and confirmation settings. Lems is not yet verified for submit, so orders come back as staged_in_portal: you review the basket in Bridge and place it in a signed-in portal window there, with no portal login.

### Can Claude or ChatGPT use my Lems dealer account?

Yes, through the Bridge to Brands MCP server at https://mcp.brdg2b.ai/mcp. As of 16 October 2026, Claude connects with an API key or OAuth and ChatGPT with OAuth; tools such as get_availability and place_order act on Lems with the key's scopes, and every call is metered to that key.

### Can I search the Lems catalog by API?

As of 16 October 2026, yes: GET /v1/brands/lems/products?q= and the MCP tool search_products search the Lems dealer portal (Elastic Suite) by free text and return matching styles with their colourways and dealer prices.

### Can Bridge to Brands place Lems orders for me?

As of 16 October 2026: Placing Lems orders is partly built: a portal step still needs a recorded portal session, and Lems's written permission is also needed before it turns on, so orders are staged and you review and place them in Bridge, in a signed-in portal window with no portal login.

### Does Bridge to Brands return Lems order confirmations and tracking?

As of 16 October 2026, confirmations only: Bridge to Brands reads Lems order confirmations and status from the Lems dealer portal (Elastic Suite), but tracking is not available for Lems; check shipments in the portal.
