Update product

PATCH
/api/v1/products/{ITEM_CODE}
Last modified:2025-02-07 14:43:52

Updating a Product in 4WS.Trade#

This use case allows an external system to update product information in the 4WS.Trade product catalog. The update might include changes to the product's description, composition, supplier codes, and dimension groups.

Actors#

API Client: The system or user initiating the request.
4ws.trade: The backend system that processes the request.

Languages#

To understand how languages are managed, please refer to our Managing Languages Documentation.

Preconditions#

The product with the provided item_code must already exist in the 4WS.Trade catalog.
The external system must have the necessary permissions and access to the document creation service, please refer to Authentication.

Main Success Scenario#

1.
The external system sends a PATCH request to the 4WS.Trade API with the product's updated attributes.
2.
The 4WS.Trade system processes the update and modifies the product information.
3.
If the update is successful, the system returns an HTTP 200 status with the updated product details.
    {
      "product": {
        "prog_id": "90941",
        "item_code": "MININTSAB-52311090940"
      }
    }
CAUTION
By default, you cannot change the dimension group of an item that has been used in a document. To bypass this check, specify ignore_movements as true.

Alternate Flows#

**Product Not Found: If the item_code does not exist, the system returns a 422 error with a message like: Product not found with item_code: {{itemCode}}.
    {
      "message": "Product not found with item_code: {{itemCode}}"
    }
**Invalid Data: If any required fields are missing or incorrectly formatted, the system returns a relevant HTTP error, such as 400 (Bad Request) or 422 (Unprocessable Entity), with details about the issue.

Sequence Diagram#

Below is a sequence diagram illustrating the interaction between the external system and 4WS.Trade for updating a product.
Best Practices
Please refer to Best Practices for Error Handling in External System for best practices on implementation.

Code Examples in Node.js#

Here is an example of how to use the API in Node.js:
