ProductsCustomBatchRequestEntry

A batch entry encoding a single non-batch products request.

JSON representation 
{
  "batchId": integer,
  "merchantId": string,
  "method": string,
  "productId": string,
  "product": {
    object (Product)
  },

An entry ID, unique within the batch request.
merchantId

string

The ID of the managing account.

string

The method of the batch entry.

Acceptable values are:

  • "delete"
  • "get"
  • "insert"
  • "update"
productId

string

The ID of the product to get or mutate. Only defined if the method is get, delete, or update.
product

object (Product)

The product to insert or update. Only required if the method is insert or update. If the update method is used with updateMask only to delete a field, then this isn't required. For example, setting salePrice on the updateMask and not providing a product will result in an existing sale price on the product specified by productId being deleted.
feedId

string

The Content API Supplemental Feed ID. If present then product insertion or deletion applies to a supplemental feed instead of primary Content API feed.
updateMask

string (FieldMask format)

The comma-separated list of product attributes to be updated. Example: "title,salePrice". Attributes specified in the update mask without a value specified in the body will be deleted from the product. You must specify the update mask to delete attributes. Only top-level product attributes can be updated. If not defined, product attributes with set values will be updated and other attributes will stay unchanged. Only defined if the method is update.
