Publish existing product

[BLC-Nicolas]

Hi everyone, 

I'd like to know how can I publish an existing product via the REST API.

I've tried to send something like that :

{
"product": {
"id": xxxxxxxxxxx,
"published": true
}
}

But I keep getting a 400 Bad Request.

Hi

We'll need a little more information than this if possible.

What's the endpoint you're hitting?

What method is the request? (i.e. GET, POST, PUT etc.)

Are you sending the data in your post as the body of a POST request?

I believe for this kind of update you'll want to PUT to an endpoint that includes the product ID in the URL:

// PUT /admin/api/2020-07/products/xxxxxxxxxxx.json
{
  "product": {
    "id": xxxxxxxxxxx,
    "published": true
  }
}

Endpoint is : /admin/api/2020-01/orders/xxxxxxxxxxxxx.json

Request type : PUT

And yes, the JSON is the body of the request.

Hi There

So you're hitting the /orders/ endpoint from your post above?

That should be going to the /products/ endpoint?

Might just be a typo but worth checking?

[BLC-Nicolas]

Oh sorry that was a typo in my post.

I'm hitting the /products/ endpoint not the /order/ one

Also, I actually get a 406 error, I thought it was a 400 but it is not.

Hi Nicolas

So a 406 normally means some kind of misformed request.

Do you have the full headers object for the request?

How are you making the request?

Would you be able to share the code for how you're making the request?

Do the keys your using have the correct Product Write permissions?

Sorry hard to know exactly what to tell you unless we get a bit more info.
