Restore a deleted product
AI agents: read /llms.txt; add .md to any page URL. This page as Markdown: /reference/products/v1-product-restore.md. Index of every page and the rules for every call: /llms.txt. Guides and concepts in one file: /llms-full.txt. OpenAPI: /openapi.json.
PATCH/
Restores a deleted product, its stock rows, and its variants that were removed when the product was deleted (variants deleted individually beforehand remain deleted). Phase-out status is preserved. Repeating a restore on a non-deleted product is safe (returns 200 with restored: false). No request body.
The response describes what was restored:
product: The restored product in the products list row shape.restored:truewhen restored by this call;falsewhen it was already active.variants_restored: All live variants after the restore, in ID order (including variants left active by pre-v3.7.0 deletes).variants_still_deleted: Variants that remain deleted because they were deleted individually beforehand.stock_rows_restored: Number of stock rows restored.stock_units_restored: Total units held in the restored stock rows.phased_out:trueif the restored product is phased out (or all its live variants are phased out).name_clash:trueif another live product of the team shares the same brand, title, and supplier code (a warning, not a refusal).
A product the team does not have, deleted or not, returns 404 product_not_found; an ID that cannot be decoded returns generic 404.

401The API key is missing or wrong (
unauthenticated).403You are not allowed to do this.
api_access_not_in_plan: your team's plan doesn't include API access (Pro and above, with an active subscription or trial), so every request answers this until the team upgrades. When your role lacks the permission the operation needs, the body is only{"message": "Insufficient Permission"}. Other refusals use the error envelope, withunauthorizedoruser_is_not_authorized.- When
- Your role cannot update products. This 403 has a short body,
{"message": "Insufficient Permission"}, with nosuccessorerror. - Fix
- Ask a team owner to set Manage Products to "Users CAN view, update and create products".
404Not found.
page_not_found: the team slug is unknown, you are not a member of the team, or an id in the path is not one of this team's.code: null, with a message that starts "No query results for": there is no record with that id.- When
- The team has no such product, deleted or not (
error.codeproduct_not_found). - Fix
- Check the id; list deleted products with
status=deleted.
