Update Product Substitution

PUT 
/api/product-substitutions/:substitutionId

Update a substitution rule's substitution_type, mode, flags, priority, active state, or notes.

Required scope: products:write

Grant this scope to your token under Settings → Developer → Personal Access Tokens.

Authentication: Requires Bearer token.

Activating or switching a rule to always re-runs swap-loop detection and is rejected when it would close a loop.

substitution_type (direct | replacement) may be changed here too — it is orthogonal to mode and reclassifying a rule never changes when it swaps.

Content-Type

401

Unauthenticated — the bearer token is missing, revoked, expired, or malformed. Never retry automatically; fix the credential. See the Errors guide.

403

Forbidden — the token lacks a required scope, the endpoint is not available to API tokens, or the user behind the token lacks the permission. A human must adjust the token scopes or user permissions; do not retry.

404

Not found — no record with the given identifier (or the route does not exist). Verify the ID before retrying.

422

Validation failed — the body is a field → messages map (Laravel shape) or the platform envelope with a stable machine-readable code. Fix the payload and resubmit.

429

Rate limited — platform limit is 1,000 requests/min; individual tokens may carry lower limits. Honor the Retry-After header before retrying. See the Rate Limits guide.
