## Mutations with this payload

* [product​Update](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productUpdate)

  mutation

  Updates a [product](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/Product) with attributes such as title, description, vendor, and media.

  The `productUpdate` mutation helps you modify many products at once, avoiding the tedious or time-consuming process of updating them one by one in the Shopify admin. Common examples including updating product details like status or tags.

  The `productUpdate` mutation doesn't support updating [product variants](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/ProductVariant). To update multiple product variants for a single product and manage prices, use the [`productVariantsBulkUpdate`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productVariantsBulkUpdate) mutation.

  ***

  Note

  The `productUpdate` mutation has a [throttle](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/usage/rate-limits#resource-based-rate-limits) that takes effect when a store has 50,000 product variants. After this threshold is reached, no more than 1,000 new product variants can be updated per day.

  ***

  After updating a product, you can make additional changes using one of the following mutations:

  * [`productSet`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productSet): Used to perform multiple operations on products, such as creating or modifying product options and variants.
  * [`publishablePublish`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/publishablePublish): Used to publish the product and make it available to customers, if the product is currently unpublished.
