PUT 200 but price not updated

[swong94]

Hi, 

I've spent hours trying to figure out why requests isn't working for put. I'm posting here as i'm totally stuck.

I get 200OK but the response shows an unchanged product/variant/

Can I get help on this please?

My goal is to change price/sku according to the json provided.

X-Request-ID': '43a42d0f-75e0-4aee-b90c-fd5800e72940'

import requests


headers = {"X-Shopify-Access-Token": "{token}","Content-Type": "application/json"}

data={"product":{"id":8077722714417,"title":"Default Title","variants":[{"id":44193894662449,"price":"1200.00","sku":"kdkfjdskfd"}]}}

api_url = f"https://{website.com}/admin/api/2022-10/products/8077722714417.json"


res = requests.put(api_url,json=data, headers=headers,allow_redirects=True)
print(res)

print(res._content)

As you can see, below response is what i get and it doesn't show an updated price (expecting 1200.00 but got 120.00).

<Response [200]>

Hey @swong94,

When testing on our end but were unable to replicate the behavior described, with either the product or product variant REST endpoints, as well as across multiple API versions.  

Would you be able to replicate this again, log and then share the following response headers: x-request-id and date (timestamp)? 

If possible, testing with an API client like Postman for debugging will also help rule out any potential app level configurations. The requested details are generic to share in thread here, and with examples we can take a look at logs on our end, share any findings, suggestions or next steps. 

Best!

All good - fixed by using urllib3. Not sure why requests isn't working but maybe this will help someone that is stuck using requests.
