Update a product

Request

To update a product, send a PUT request to:

http://<server>:<port>/cpm/commercial/v1/products/<_id>

The payload should contain the details of the product that are to be updated.

Mandatory fields

  • type – must be set to the original value when it was created

Example

A request with this payload updates the name of the specified product:

{     "type": "transactional",     "purchasablePeriod":{         "start":"2018-01-01T00:00:00Z",         "end":"2020-01-01T00:00:00Z"     },     "nominalPrice": {         "amount": 50,         "currency": "EUR"     } }

Response

A successful request returns an HTTP 202 status and a link to the updated product.

A bad request returns an HTTP 400 status.

All PUT and POST calls to CPM are validated by the Validation Service. If there is a problem with the data you are submitting, you will receive one of the following:

  • Error – the data is invalid, so the request fails.
    The error message will indicate which data is invalid and why.

  • Warning – there is an issue with the data that does not prevent it from being added/updated in CPM, but that you need to be aware of.
    For example, if a mandatory field has no value for a non-primary locale (but the same field for the primary locale does have a value), you will get a warning rather than an error.
    The warning message will indicate which data is invalid and why.

Note that there are still conditions where a request can pass validation, but fail when it reaches CPM, so you must handle such responses in an appropriate way too.

In addition, all such errors and warnings:

  • Are available as a report in Data Warehouse (errors only).

  • Generate alert emails that are sent to the email addresses that were configured when the system was deployed.

Note: this data only becomes available in the report 60–90 minutes after the error occurs (and the email is sent).

Example

A successful request returns a payload that looks like this:

{     "self": "/commercial/v1/products/PROVIDER_ID_001_PROVIDER_RESOURCE_ID_001" }
