Example Usage

GET /features/

curl -X GET 'http://example.com/api/features'

This example request returns the list of product features with their properties.

GET /features/:id/

curl -X GET 'http://example.com/api/features/14'

This example request returns the properties of the product feature with feature_id=14.

POST /features/

Send the data in the body of the HTTP request. The data should comply with the content-type.

If you successfully create a feature, you will receive HTTP/1.1 201 Created.

If the feature couldn’t be created, you will receive HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request.

Required fields: company_id, description, feature_type

Available fields: company_id, feature_type, purpose, feature_style, filter_style, parent_id, display_on_product, display_on_catalog, display_on_header, description, lang_code, prefix, suffix, categories_path, full_description, status, comparison, position, variants

Important

Currently you can’t set the image_pair for a product feature via REST API.

curl --header 'Content-type: application/json' -X POST 'http://example.com/api/features' --data-binary '{"company_id":"1", "feature_type":"C", "description":"Handmade", "status":"A"}'

This example request creates a new checkbox feature called Handmade in the store with the company_id=1. The status of this product feature is set to Active.

In the response you receive the ID of the feature.

{feature_id: 22}

PUT /features/:id/

Send the data in the body of the HTTP request. The data should comply with the content-type.

Required fields: company_id, description, feature_type

Available fields: company_id, feature_type, parent_id, display_on_product, display_on_catalog, display_on_header, description, lang_code, prefix, suffix, categories_path, full_description, status, comparison, position, variants

Important

Currently you can’t set the image_pair for a product feature via REST API.

curl --header 'Content-type: application/json' -X PUT 'http://example.com/api/features/22' --data-binary '{"company_id":"1", "feature_type":"S", "comparison":"Y", "variants":[{"variant": "Unique"}, {"variant": "Mass-produced"}]}'

This example request turns the feature with feature_id=22 (Handmade in our case) into a Select Box: Text feature and creates 2 new variants for it: Unique and Mass-produced. The request also makes this feature appear on the product comparison page.

To update an already existing variant, add its variant_id to the object:

Hint

Learn the variant IDs of a feature with GET /features/:id.

curl --header 'Content-type: application/json' -X PUT 'http://example.com/api/features/22' --data-binary '{"company_id":"1", "feature_type":"S", "variants":[{"variant_id":"150", "variant":"Unique"}, {"variant_id":"151", "variant":"Mass-produced"}]}'

This example request updates the variants of the the feature with feature_id=22 (Handmade in our case)

Warning

Be sure to send all the feature variants in the object—the variants that you don’t send will be lost.

In the response you receive the ID of the feature.

{feature_id: 22}

If you successfully delete a product feature, you will receive HTTP/1.1 204 No Content.

If the product feature couldn’t be deleted, you will receive HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request.

Let’s specify the value of this feature as we create a new product with POST /products/.

Send the data in the body of the HTTP request. The data should comply with the content-type.
