CoreMedia Digital Experience Platform 8 Developer Manual, Version 7.5.45-10
3.4. Customizing IBM WebSphere Commerce | 3.4.1. Preparing the RAD Workspace

CoreMedia Digital Experience Platform 8 integrates with IBM WCS using the WebSphere Commerce REST API, therefore you have to deploy/enable all the REST modules in the WCS workspace for CoreMedia DXP 8 to function properly. These modules include: Rest and Search-Rest modules.

The CoreMedia LiveContext 2.0 WebSphere Commerce Project Workspace archive (download at http://releases.coremedia.com/dxp8 contains all new and extended files required to install CoreMedia DXP 8 in the IBM WebSphere Commerce RAD workspace. In principle, you can copy the workspace on top of a fresh Aurora RAD workspace, but only when you do not already have customizations. Make sure you download the Zip archive that matches your WebSphere Commerce version.

	Warning
	If you have already customized the Aurora RAD workspace, you cannot copy the CoreMedia Zip content above it, because this would overwrite the former changes. In this case, unzip the file and add and merge the files manually as described in the subsequent sections.
