Retrieving recent requests…

Use this API to create Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) for products, services, or events. SKUs represent the sellable or trackable units in your catalogue and can be associated with brands, categories, and custom attributes.

You can create SKUs in bulk, with support for up to 100 SKUs per request. This batch limit is configurable using the CONF_PRODUCT_CREATE_UPDATE_BATCH_SIZE configuration.

What this API supports

Bulk creation of SKUs in a single request
Association with existing brands and categories
Assignment of custom attributes and attribute values
Optional returnability settings and product metadata
Organisation unit (OU)–scoped SKU creation when OU support is enabled

Organisation unit (OU) support

You can scope SKUs to a specific organisation unit using ouCode.

To use OU-scoped SKUs, you must:

Mark the concept as OU-enabled
Enable OU-level inventory configuration

If ouCode is not provided, the SKU is created at the organisation level by default.

🚧
**Note: **
When you provide reference codes (brandCode, categoryCode, colorCode, etc.) that don't exist in the system, the API returns warnings but still creates the SKU. The SKU will be created without those associations. This allows for flexible SKU creation workflows where referenced entities might not be set up yet.
