description: Instacart Shopping Widgets are front-end web components that retailers can embed into their
  websites to add e-commerce functionalities powered by Instacart without interacting with any API directly.
  The widgets enable features such as product search results, cart management, product collections, and
  user authentication.
x-base-url-note: 'Shopping Widgets are front-end web components, not an API: Instacart''s own documentation
  says they add e-commerce capability ''without having to interact with any API directly''. The only host
  a retailer actually calls is the CloudFront path that serves the per-retailer UMD bundle (ic-widgets-v1.umd.js),
  which is templated on the retailer name and issued at sign-up. Recorded here in place of the api.example.com
  placeholder that was previously carried. Custom widgets, by contrast, call the Developer Platform Partner
  API documented on the partner-gated host partner-docs.instacart.com.'
