# Product status: delete, disable, out of stock

There are two ways to stop selling a product on Winkelstraat.nl. A product cannot be
disabled through the API: sending `"enabled": false` is answered with
`422 Products cannot be disabled.`

| Action | How | Effect on Winkelstraat.nl | How to undo |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Out of stock** | Send `quantity` `0` with `PATCH /products/{code}/attribute/quantity` (or in a full update). | The product stays in the catalogue but cannot be ordered. The other sizes are not affected. | Send a quantity above `0`. |
| **Delete** | `DELETE /api/rest/v1/retailer/products/{code}` | The size is removed from the webshop. When all sizes of a product group are deleted, the whole product disappears from the webshop. The product no longer appears in `GET /products`. | Send the product again with `POST` or `PATCH`; it is restored. |

### When changes become visible

* **Stock** changes are passed on to the webshop directly after the API call.
* Other changes (new products, product information, prices, images and deletions) appear
  on the webshop after the next scheduled catalogue update, not immediately.
* New images first go through Winkelstraat's image review (see **Images**).

### Delete one size or the whole product

`DELETE` removes a single product (one size). To remove an article completely, delete
every size of its product group.

### Creating a product with stock 0

A new product that you send with `quantity` `0` is **not created**: the API answers
`202 Accepted` and nothing is stored. Send the product again once it is in stock.
