Displaying Items for Sale

For Weedmaps Catalog API, you can control the quantity and price of an item for sale by using the Catalog Item resource.

A catalog_item resource is what ties everything together. It connects the product_variant to a catalog, assigning its price and availability in the process.

To create our first catalog_item, we will use the API Reference Catalog Item POST to generate the cURL command. Required fields in the payload are prince_in_cents, and a catalog and product_variant in the relationship. While available and online_orderable are required fields, they default to false and true respectively so we do not need to include them in the payload. However, your catalog_item needs to have available set to true for it to be displayed.

Your generated cURL command should look similar to our example below.

curl --globoff \
	--request POST \
  --url 'https://api-g.weedmaps.com/catalog/v1/catalog_items?scope_by[organization_id]=da78484e-4c16-4a85-b78e-18664c323623' \
  --header 'accept: application/vnd.api+json' \
  --header 'authorization: Bearer [ACCESS TOKEN HERE]' \
  --header 'content-type: application/vnd.api+json' \
  --data '{
  	"data": {
    	"attributes": {
       	"available": true,
        "online_orderable": true,
        "price_in_cents":4200
      },
      "relationships": {
      	"catalog": {
        	"data":{
          	"type": "catalogs",
            "id":"f8382b94-7f0a-45bb-90b2-d3d70825a9e9"
          }
        },
        "product_variant": {
        	"data": {
          	"type": "product_variants",
            "id":"76a159be-1fd6-4726-90fa-ec814ec68d3a"
          }
        }
      },
      "type": "catalog_items"
    }
  }'

Be sure to save the catalog_item ID from your response as it will be needed later in the guide.
