FAQ

How to associate or disassociate a custom-field with a specific product?

In this case, the endpoint PUT products/{product_id}/custom-fields/values (link with documentation) should be used, which overwrites the custom-fields associated with that product.

If you would like to remove all custom-fields, the following body should be sent:

[]

If you have two or more custom-fields, you should send only the ones you want to keep. For example:

[
{
"id": "57358282-92e5-47cc-8c6e-9f0a4e7bf05f",
"value": "Acme"
}
]

Important: the custom-field must already be created for the entity.

It's possible to delete all custom-fields with the DELETE endpoint?

Only those created by own App. Custom-fields created by another App or by the merchant can't be deleted.
