Update an Order

PUT /orders/{order_id}

Request

Updates an Order.

To add a product to an existing order, don't include id in the body. Include product_options if adding a product with variants.

To update a product in an order, include id in the body. The body should only contain the fields that need to be updated. Those fields that are omitted will not be changed.

To remove a product from an order, set that product’s quantity to 0.

After the update, the PUT request clears all discounts and promotions applied to the order. Since the order data syncs with other ERP systems, like Amazon or eBay, the updated order returns to the default setting, removing any applied discounts.

To learn more about creating or updating orders, see Orders Overview.
