Product options in Connect Marketplace can be grouped in option combinations—this is useful for tracking products. For example, clothes come in various colors and sizes. It’s convenient to track separately, how many blue XL T-shirts and white M T-shirts you have. You can also separate code and image for the combination.
Important
A product option must have the Inventory checkbox ticked (inventory=Y
) to be a part of the combination. Only the options of the Checkbox, Select box, and Radiogroup type have that checkbox.
To get a list of option combination of a specific product, send a GET request to /api/combinations/?product_id=:id
. For example:
GET /api/combinations/?product_id=12
If the request is successful, you’ll receive HTTP/1.1 200 OK and JSON with all the option combinations of the product.
Add these parameters to the path to specify what how many option combinations should be returned in the response:
Parameter | Values | Description |
---|---|---|
items_per_page | integer | This parameter separates the list of option combinations into pages. It also limits the number of the option combinations that you receive in the response. |
page | integer | This parameter works only if you specify items_per_page . It determines the number of the page that will be sent in the response. |
Example:
GET /api/combinations/?product_id=12&items_per_page=2&page=3
Response is an array with 2 option combinations of the product with product_id=12
from the 3rd page.
Let’s make a test request:
GET /api/combinations/?product_id=12&items_per_page=2
If the request is successful, you’ll receive HTTP/1.1 200 OK. The response is JSON with the following data:

To get the details of a specific option combination, send a GET request to /api/combinations/<combination_hash>
. For example:
GET /api/combinations/822274303
If the request is successful, you’ll receive HTTP/1.1 200 OK and JSON with the details of the option combination.
The fields below represent various details of an option combination.
Note
The Connect Marketplace REST API always accepts and returns data as strings and arrays/objects. The Values column in the table merely shows what kind of data you can expect in the fields.
Parameter | Values | Description |
---|---|---|
product_id | integer | The unique identifier of the product that the option combination is associated with. |
product_code | integer | The product code of the option combination. |
combination_hash | integer | The hash of the option combination. |
combination | object | The options and variants that comprise the combination. |
amount | integer | Determines how many items of this combination are in stock. |
position | integer | The lower this number, the higher the option combination appears on the list in the Administration panel. |
image_pairs | object | The information about the image of the option combination. |
To create an option combination, send a POST request to /api/combinations/
.
Pass the fields with the option combination details in the HTTP request body in accordance with the passed Content-Type
. Required fields are marked with *:
product_id*—the unique identifier of the product that the option combination is associated with.
amount—how many items of this combination are in stock.
Note
This parameter appears in the Administration panel only if the product is tracked with options.
position—the lower this number, the higher the option combination appears on the list in the Administration panel.
combination—the options and variants that comprise the combination.
Important
The options you specify should be available for the product and should have inventory=Y
.
You can’t set image_pairs or product_code with the POST request.
Example JSON:
{
"product_id": "4",
"combination": {
"24": "74",
"25": "80",
"26": "86"
},
"amount": "34",
"position": "10"
}
This request creates a new option combination for the product with product_id=4
. This combination consists of:
There are 34 items of this particular combination in stock.
If the option combination is created successfully, you will receive HTTP/1.1 201 Created and the combination hash in the response:
{
"combination_hash": "2822626827"
}
If the option couldn’t be created, you will receive HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request.
To update an existing option combination, send the PUT request to /api/combinations/<combination_hash>/
. For example:
PUT /api/combinations/2822626827
Pass the fields with option combination details in the HTTP request body in accordance with the passed Content-Type
. None of the fields are required.
Note
You can’t update the combination
field directly with the PUT request.
Example JSON:
{
"product_code": "Product 34214",
"amount": "42",
"position": "0"
}
This request changes the amount of items in stock, the product code of the combination, and the position of the combination on the list.
To delete an option combination, send the DELETE request to /api/combinations/<combination_hash>?product_id=:id
.
Note
Product ID is specified to check if the user has permission to delete this combination.
DELETE /api/combinations/2822626827?product_id=4
This request deletes the specified option combination of the product.
