Subscription Plans

Update subscription group details and product assignments

Updates an existing subscription group (selling plan group) including its name, selling plans configuration, and optionally manages product/variant assignments. This endpoint provides comprehensive update capabilities for both the subscription group structure and its product associations.

Key Capabilities:

Update subscription group name
Modify existing selling plan configurations (discounts, frequencies, trials, etc.)
Add or remove products/variants through updateProducts and deleteProducts fields
Cannot add or remove selling plans - only modify existing ones
Automatically handles complex discount transitions for free trials and prepaid plans
Updates delivery profile associations if changed
Triggers asynchronous operations for metafield updates and free product checks

Important Notes:

The ‘id’ field is required and must match an existing subscription group
For each selling plan in subscriptionPlans array, provide ‘idNew’ with the existing selling plan ID
Plan modifications maintain the same selling plan ID in Shopify
Product/variant updates are processed after group details are updated
Large product updates (allProduct=true) run asynchronously

Selling Plan Updates:

Can change discount amounts, types, and cycles
Can modify billing/delivery frequencies
Can add/remove free trials
Can change member restrictions and tags
Can update specific day delivery settings
Can modify min/max cycles
