Product options define the choices available for a product, such as size, color, or material. *** Caution Removing an option can affect a product's [variants](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/ProductVariant) and their configuration. Deleting an option might also delete associated option values and, depending on the chosen [strategy](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productoptionsdelete#arguments-strategy), might affect variants. *** Use the `productOptionsDelete` mutation for the following use cases: * **Simplify product configuration**: Remove obsolete or unnecessary options (for example, discontinue "Material" if all variants are now the same material). * **Clean up after seasonal or limited-time offerings**: Delete options that are no longer relevant (for example, "Holiday edition"). * **Automate catalog management**: Enable apps or integrations to programmatically remove options as product data changes. *** Note The `productOptionsDelete` mutation enforces strict data integrity for product options and variants. All option positions must remain sequential, and every remaining option must be used by at least one variant. *** After you delete a product option, you can further manage a product's configuration using related mutations: * [`productOptionsCreate`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productOptionsCreate) * [`productOptionUpdate`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productOptionUpdate) * [`productOptionsReorder`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productOptionsReorder) * [`productVariantsBulkCreate`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productVariantsBulkCreate) * [`productVariantsBulkUpdate`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productVariantsBulkUpdate) * [`productSet`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productSet) Learn more about the [product model](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/graphql/migrate/new-product-model) and [adding product data](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/graphql/migrate/new-product-model/add-data). *** ## Map ### Mutations with this payload * [product​Options​Delete](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/types/productOptionsDelete)
