In Wix API, you can update multiple product information simultaneously. This is why Beehexa will show you how to update a product using Postman efficiently and quickly.
If this is the first time you make a call in the Postman, you must generate API credentials from the Wix Developers website.
Step 1: Generate API credentials from the Wix Developers’ Website.
Follow the process in Wix API: How to get an access token and refresh the access token? To know how to access Wix API.
- After creating an app, remember the access token and the refresh token to send requests in the Postman.
Step 2: Refresh the access token using Postman.
Wix’s access token is only valid for 5 minutes, so you need to use the refresh token to request a new access token.
Flow these steps below to refresh the access token.
- Log in to your Postman and create a new workspace.
- Create a new POST with this URL:
https://www.wix.com/oauth/accessCode language: JavaScript (javascript)
- In the body section, enter the code.
Payload:
{
"grant_type": "refresh_token",
"client_id": <APP_ID>,
"client_secret": <APP_SECRET>,
"refresh_token": <REFRESH_TOKEN>
}
Code language: JSON / JSON with Comments (json)Body Params:
| NAME | TYPE | DESCRIPTION |
| grant_type | String | Value must be set to “refresh_token” |
| client_id | String | The App ID as defined in the Wix Developers Center |
| client_secret | String | The Secret Key for your app as defined in your Wix Developers Center |
| refresh_token | String | The refresh token issued with the access token |
- Then click SEND
Response:
The Postman will return the new access token and the refresh token in order to request a new access token.

Step 3: Update a product using Postman
Before updating a product, you need to get a product_ID of that product because the update call includes that parameter.
To get the product_ID, let’s follow the process below.
- From Wix dashboard.
- Go to “Store Products”.
- Click on “Products”.
- Then choose the product that you want to update the information on.
- Finally, copy the ID in the URL.
In this case, the product_ID=df19c1f7-07d8-a265-42f8-e8dfa824cc6e
We are ready to update a product using Postman with Wix API.
- Log in to your Postman and create a new workspace.
- Create a new PATCH with this URL:
https://www.wixapis.com/stores/v1/products/{product.id}Code language: JavaScript (javascript)–HEADER: ‘Authorization: <ACCESS TOKEN>’
In the body, enter the code.
This code contains the product information that you want to update.
This is the current discount code value and the product price.
In this call, I will change the name, discount code value, and product price.
- Name: T-Shirt -> Shoes
- Price: 12,5 -> 15
- Discount: 2 -> 5
