​
Overview

Clone an existing product to create a new draft copy. The duplicated product inherits the original’s description, product type, vendor, tags, options, variants, images, media, and metafields. The following fields are changed automatically:
  • Title becomes “Copy of [original title]”
  • Status is set to draft (or pending if the shop requires approval for new products)
  • Inventory is zeroed out on all variants
  • SKUs are cleared to avoid duplicates
  • Handle is regenerated by Shopify
Vendor tokens can only duplicate their own products.

​
Use Cases

  • Quickly create a similar product based on an existing one
  • Use a product as a template for seasonal variations
  • Speed up catalog expansion by cloning and editing

​
Required Scope

products:write

​
Path Parameters

productId
