# Network access support for Discount Functions

The [`Discount Function API`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/functions/reference/discount) now supports network access for Enterprise merchants, giving them the ability to integrate with external premium discount, loyalty, and promotion systems.

Network access for the Discount Function API enables these external systems to do the following things:

* Automatically apply discounts based on customer identity and products in the cart.
* Accept externally defined discount codes.
