Processes for updating item related information

Depending on what kind of information you need to update, there are different processes that need to be followed.

• Send the item for approval using the items/sendforapproval endpoint

Update package information

When there is information on an existing package that needs to be updated, the process is as follows:

• Update the information using the PATCH method on the packages endpoint

• Send the item for approval using the items/sendforapproval endpoint.

Create a new package on an existing item

When a new package needs to be created for an existing item, the process is as follows:

• Create a new package using the POST method on the packages endpoint

• Send the item for approval, using the items /sendforapproval endpoint.

Add/Delete/Update images and documentation

If you want to add, update or delete images or documentation for the item, follow the processes as defined here.

Once all changes are done, you must send the item for approval using the items/sendforapproval endpoint.

Expire/Reactivate an item

If you want to expire an item, POST to the items/expire endpoint. When setting expiryDate for an item, there is no need to send the item to approval.

If you want to reactive an expiring/expired item, POST to the items/reactivate endpoint. After this operation, you will need to send the item for approval.
