For Add new product in Bigcommerce account. You need to pass required product parameter in json encoded form.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
$data_array = array( 'name'=>'product name', 'description' =>'description of product', 'retail_price' =>'list price of product', 'weight' =>'weight', 'depth' =>'length of product', 'height' =>'height', 'width' =>'width', 'inventory_level' =>'number of items in stock' ); |
Than you have to encode the $data_array in json form.
$body=json_encode($data_array);
Using php curl code you can post the API request in bigcommerce. Check below curl code to add new product in bigcommerce via its api.
$headers = array(
“Content-type: application/json”
);
Use json content application in curl header request.

$chbig = curl_init('https://store-l3wxicl1.mybigcommerce.com/api/v2/products'); //open connection curl_setopt($chbig, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 60); //set to 60 seconds from BC API Guide v1 PDF example curl_setopt($chbig, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers); //load all header data curl_setopt($chbig, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "PUT"); //comment out this PUT line to change to a POST statement curl_setopt( $chbig, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0 ); curl_setopt( $chbig, CURLOPT_USERPWD, ***username***:***api key***); curl_setopt($chbig, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $body); curl_setopt( $chbig, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0 ); curl_setopt( $chbig, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1 ); $result = curl_exec($chbig); //execute post curl_close($chbig); $result1 = json_decode($result); echo "<pre>"; print_r($result1); if ($result == true) { echo 'Product updated successfully'; } else { echo 'An error occured while updating the product.'; } |
In this curl code, use your bigcommerce admin username and api key to access the api request. After post this request new product is added in account.
You can also add new product with SKU, for that use this api request url : https://store-l3wxicl7.mybigcommerce.com/api/v2/products/{product_id}/sku.

Hi Zacaca
To add image for product just need to pass “image_file” parameter as image path value. Its use Basic POST curl code to this request URL : /api/v2/products/{product_id}/images.
Place your product id in request URL.

Hello Can you please help me how to crate an order using api
Hi Siddhesh,
Creating an order is something similar as Adding Products. You can use POST API request with order parameters to create an order.
Product must exist in Bigcommerce, than only you can create an order. Please check official documentation for exact API Request Parameter. https://developer.bigcommerce.com/api/v2/#create-an-order
If you need my paid service, please let me know. Will create an API call for you.
Thanks
i want to add order in my store like user give order can you help me on this topic..?
Have you tried with POST API call ? what issue you getting ?
issue is “400The field ‘products’ is invalid.” so how i pass products in api call
If you are adding products first than follow above mentioned post. After adding you will get product ID, which you can pass along with create new order API request parameters.
And if products already exist in store, than also get that product ID and pass in order API request.
Thanks
No no i want to add order using api
If I try two calls like this, It gives me easy handle already used in multi handle error
If I remove one of them , it works fine.
Bigcommerce::getCustomer($customer_id);
Bigcommerce::getProduct($product_id);
Thank You
