You can create pre-order and TBYB options using the GraphQL Admin API's [`sellingPlanGroupCreate`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/sellingplangroupcreate) mutation. This guide describes the requirements for creating pre-order or TBYB options and shows you how to manage them using the GraphQL Admin API.

## Requirements

- Your app can make [authenticated requests](/docs/api/admin-graphql#authentication) to the GraphQL Admin API.
- Your app has the following [access scopes](/docs/api/usage/access-scopes):
  - `write_products`
  - `read_all_orders`
  - `read_customer_payment_methods`
  - `read_purchase_options`
  - `write_purchase_options`
  - `read_payment_mandate`
  - `write_payment_mandate`

     Learn how to [configure your access scopes using Shopify CLI](/docs/apps/build/cli-for-apps/app-configuration).
- You've familiarized yourself with [selling plans](/docs/apps/build/purchase-options) and [pre-orders and TBYB](/docs/apps/build/purchase-options/deferred).
- You've created [products](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/products-and-collections/productcreate) and [product variants](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/products-and-collections/productvariantcreate) in your development store.
- The merchant that you're developing for meets the [qualifying criteria](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/subscriptions/setup#eligibility-requirements).

    > Note:
>
> - Most subscriptions, pre-order and try before you buy apps need to request API access through the [Partner Dashboard](/docs/apps/build/authentication-authorization/access-tokens/authorization-code-grant#ask-for-permission). We give API access to apps that are designed according to our [principles for subscriptions, pre-order and TBYB apps] (/docs/apps/selling-strategies/purchase-options#shopifys-principles).
> - Public apps that use subscriptions, pre-order or TBYB need to meet [specific requirements](/docs/apps/launch/app-requirements-checklist#purchase-option-apps) to be published on the Shopify App Store.
> - Custom apps [created in the Shopify admin](/docs/apps/build/authentication-authorization/access-tokens/generate-app-access-tokens-admin) can't use subscriptions, pre-order or TBYB because these apps can't use extensions or request access to protected scopes. If you're building a solution for a single store, then build your custom app in the Partner Dashboard.


## Step 1: Create pre-order and TBYB options

> Caution:
> Subscriptions, pre-orders, TBYB, and associated records, including `SellingPlanGroup`, `SellingPlan`, policies, and associations to products and variants, are deleted 48 hours after a user uninstalls a subscriptions, pre-orders, or TBYB app. Products and product variants aren't deleted. We recommend backing up Subscriptions, pre-orders, and TBYB records in case you need to restore them later.


Create pre-order and TBYB options using the [`sellingPlanGroupCreate`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/sellingplangroupcreate) mutation. The [`SellingPlanGroup`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/sellingplangroup) object includes one or more [`SellingPlan`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/sellingplan) objects. The `SellingPlan` object specifies how a product can be sold.

Learn more about [GraphQL Admin API objects for selling plans](/docs/apps/build/purchase-options#graphql-admin-api-objects-for-purchase-options). For more information on input fields and values, refer to the following resources:

- [`SellingPlanGroupInput`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/input-objects/sellingplangroupinput)
- [`SellingPlanInput`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/input-objects/sellingplaninput)
- [How pre-orders and TBYB work](/docs/apps/build/purchase-options/deferred#how-it-works)

> Note:
> `SellingPlan` objects are grouped together in Liquid when they are created by the same app, and when they have the same `selling_plan_group.name` and `selling_plan_group.options` values. For more information, refer to  the [`selling_plan_group` object](/docs/api/liquid/objects/selling_plan_group).

## Step 2 (Optional): Manage pre-order and TBYB options

### Associate a pre-order or TBYB option to a product or product variant

You can use the [`sellingPlanGroupAddProducts`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/sellingplangroupaddproducts) mutation or the [`sellingPlanGroupAddProductVariants`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/sellingPlanGroupAddProductVariants) mutation to make a separate request to associate a pre-order or TBYB option with a product or product variant, without having to delete and recreate the pre-order or TBYB option.

### Associate multiple pre-order or TBYB options to a product or product variant

You can use the [`productJoinSellingPlanGroups`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productjoinsellingplangroups) mutation or the [`productVariantJoinSellingPlanGroups`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productvariantjoinsellingplangroups) mutation to associate multiple pre-orders or TBYB to a product or product variant.

### Edit pre-order and TBYB options

You can use the [`sellingPlanGroupUpdate`](/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/sellingplangroupupdate) mutation to edit the attributes associated with a pre-order or TBYB option. For example, you can change the pre-order or TBYB options `name`.
