I'm having trouble updating a product in Shipstation.
I'm been using these 2 links to see how I should format the response:
https://www.shipstation.com/docs/api/products/update/ https://www.any-api.com/shipstation_com/shipstation_com/docs/Products/_products_productId_/PUT
I believe I'm following it correctly, but I always get a 500 error message saying "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".
I've been using the GET request to get the product's attributes.
Then I update the attributes that need to be changed, and store it in data
(which is an array of objects). Then I use the PUT request to send the data.
This is the relevant code:
function updateProducts(authString, data) {
var baseProductUrl = `https://ssapi.shipstation.com/products/`;
for(var d = 0; d < data.products.length; d ) { //for each product I'd like to update...
var raw = data.products[d];
raw = JSON.stringify(raw);
var requestOptions = {
method: 'PUT',
headers: {
"Authorization": `Basic ${authString}`,
"Content-Type": `application/json`,
},
body: raw,
redirect: 'follow'
};
var productUrl = `${baseProductUrl}${data.products[d].productId}`;
UrlFetchApp.fetch(productUrl, requestOptions);
}
}
This is what raw
(the data I'm sending to ShipStation) looks like:
The null values are simply what I receive from the GET request. I'd prefer those attributes stay empty.
{"aliases":null,
"productId":123456789, //placeholder
"sku":"sku", //placeholder
"name":"UV Bulb - 1GPM - 10\"",
"price":19.99,
"defaultCost":null,
"length":2,
"width":2,
"height":13,
"weightOz":7,
"internalNotes":null,
"fulfillmentSku":null,
"active":true,
"productCategory":null,
"productType":null,
"warehouseLocation":null,
"defaultCarrierCode":null,
"defaultServiceCode":null,
"defaultPackageCode":null,
"defaultIntlCarrierCode":null,
"defaultIntlServiceCode":null,
"defaultIntlPackageCode":null,
"defaultConfirmation":null,
"defaultIntlConfirmation":null,
"customsDescription":"UV Bulb - 1GPM - 10\"", //attribute I'd like to update
"customsValue":9.99, //attribute I'd like to update
"customsTariffNo":null,
"customsCountryCode":"US",
"noCustoms":null,
"tags":null}
So does anyone have any hints, or has anyone used ShipStation's API before and done a PUT request? What am I missing?
CodePudding user response:
In your script, how about the following modification?
From:
var requestOptions = {
method: 'PUT',
headers: {
"Authorization": `Basic ${authString}`,
"Content-Type": `application/json`,
},
body: raw,
redirect: 'follow'
};
To:
var requestOptions = {
method: 'PUT',
headers: {
"Authorization": `Basic ${authString}`,
},
payload: raw,
contentType: "application/json",
};
