Magento 2 API (Updated 2024): Manage Special Prices

Magento provides REST endpoints that allow you to update multiple special prices. 

Today I will show you how to set, get and delete special prices using Magento 2 API. You can efficiently schedule special prices for one or more products in a store’s catalog. 

Set Special Price

The call sets special prices for the following product types:

• Simple
• Bundle
• Virtual
• Downloadable

You can set multiple special prices in a single call or set just 1 special price as shown in the example below.

Step 1: Generate Admin Access Token

Endpoint: POST <host>/rest/V1/integration/admin/token

Enter your admin username and password in Body sections, then click Send.

{
  "username": "string",
  "password": "string"
}Code language: JSON / JSON with Comments (json)

Response: access token

Step 2: Set Special Price

Create a new request and enter the admin access token

Authorization: Bearer token

Endpoint: POST <host>/rest/<store_code>/V1/products/special-price

Payload:

  "prices": [
    {
      "price": 19,
