will learn how to set the inventory level ,for an inventory item at a location
using postman in shopify api,the inventory level shows the
available quantities of an item,you can read the blog i leave the description to
learn about the close relationship of location ,inventory level inventory item and product
variant besides how the order affects inventory ,now we will set the inventory level
for an inventory item at a location,the process of setting the inventory level for an
inventory item at a location includes four steps ,step one generate api credentials from shopify
admin step two get location id using postman ,step three get inventory item id using postman
step 4 set the inventory level for an inventory ,item at a location using postman but first
let's go through the following common mistakes ,or else the call fails and no response comes
up first don't assign the inventory scope to ,the admin api scopes this mistake will prevent
the postman from accessing shopify to make calls ,second wrong calls if you enter the wrong
character or extra space these are small errors ,that sometimes you don't notice but it leads to
call failure now take the first step generate ,api credentials from shopify admin you can watch
this video to learn how to access shopify api in ,this case you need to assign the inventory scope
to the admin api scopes go to the admin click apps,choose to develop apps for your store

api integration select the inventory scopes,and click save,after that we will get location id inventory
item id to set the inventory level for an ,inventory item at a location first we need to
get the location name of the product variant,in the admin dashboard choose products and
search the product that you want to set ,the inventory level scroll down to the variant
area and determine the product's location name ,example be hexa t-shirt 2021 new version 01
product this product is available at q2 inventory ,these variations of the product are
available in all inventories of behexa ,but you just choose one location where you
want to set the inventory level then you need ,to remember the location name to use in the next
step now take the second step get the location id ,we have to get the location id because when

the location id now go to the postman,create a new get with this endpoint,then click send the api will return all location
information copy the location id of the product ,variant now take the third step get an inventory
item id however the call to get the inventory ,item id includes the varian id so we need to
collect the variation it first with these steps ,in the admin choose products search the product
that you want to get the product variant id ,scroll down to the variant area click on the
variant you want to collect the variant id ,finally copy the id of the
product variant in the url,now go to the postman create
a new get with this endpoint,this number sequence is a product variant id

the inventory item id of the product variant ,now we are all ready to take the final step

a new post with this endpoint ,in the body section enter code i will
leave the code in the description ,then click send the api will return the data like

the behexa t-shirt 2021 new version 01 product ,scroll down to the variant area click on
the variant you set the inventory level ,continue scrolling down to the inventory area then
