POST response example

{  
  "supplierPartyUrl":"/demo/api/partygroup/10001",  
  "update":[  
    {"update":{"supplierProductId":"123","price":1.55,"quantityAvailable":9001,"leadTime":1,"generalComments":"A commment"},  
     "rslt":[{productUrl: "/demo/api/product/10000"}]},  
    {"update":{"supplierProductId":"124","price":0.75,"quantityAvailable":9001,"leadTime":1},  
     "rslt":[{productUrl: "/demo/api/product/10001"}, {productUrl: "/demo/api/product/10000"}]},  
    {"update":{"supplierProductId":"125","price":19,"quantityAvailable":9001},  
     "rslt":[]},  
    {"update":{"supplierProductId":"125","price":11.5},  
     "rslt":[{productUrl: "/demo/api/product/10001"}]},  
    {"update":{"supplierProductId":"127"},  
     "error":{"msg":"unknown error"}},  
  ],  
}

This is similar to the POST body except the updates are inside of a container object that has both an update and rslt.

The rslt is a list of finale product urls that had the supplier section updated by the update.

If there are mulitple updates with the same supplierProductId, they will all be applied in order.

If the rslt is empty, that means no products had the supplierProductId in their supplier section.

If the update only has the supplierProductId field, it will get an error instead of a rslt.

If the update has no fields, it will get an empty rslt.

Rate Limits

Each account has a quota of 1000 points/minute for product supplier updates. Quotas refresh every 30 seconds. Each product updated counts as 1 point towards your quota. For reference, the example shown in this help article would use 5 points of your quota (5 products updated in a single request). This allows roughly 16 products / second to be updated.

Any requests that would cause you to run out of points will be refused with an HTTP 429 error. The response body will contain information on how many points are available, how many points have been used, and when points are refreshed. Here is an example JSON response when you have run out of points for your quota:

{  
  X-RateLimit-Limit:500,  
  X-RateLimit-Remaining:0,  
  X-RateLimit-Reset: 1627966274374, // Unix timestamp in milliseconds  
}
