Get Localized Product Price Data
You can obtain current product price data in all currencies supported by your Store--or for one or more specified countries--using a GET call with the /price parameter and optional additional parameters.
- If you do not pass optional parameters, the API responds with all products' prices for each country in each country's default currency.
- VAT / GST is included in the prices returned via the API response, where applicable.
- If a country's default currency is disabled for your Store, customers in that location see prices in your base currency instead. Therefore, it may be useful to request pricing in a specific country (inclusive of VAT or GST) for a specific currency.
Tip
FastSpring updates its currency exchange rates four times per day. You may want to call GET /products/price more often than once per day in order to obtain the latest localized pricing.
Request Parameters
| Parameter | Values | Description |
| country | ISO 2-character country code | Retrieve product pricing for a specific country, including applicable VAT or GST |
| currency | ISO 3-character currency code | In conjunction with country, retrieve product pricing in a specific currency, regardless of the country's default currency |

Update One or More Existing Products
POST /products
Specifying a product path / product ID that already exists in your Store allows you to update an existing product record via the API. By contrast, posting using a product path that does not exist will create a new product (provided all required data is included in your post).
