bulkDeleteProductVariants

Requires permission products:product:delete.

Soft-delete a set of variants by id. Never leaves a product variant-less (per-item LAST_VARIANT failure) and promotes a new default variant when the default is deleted.

Errors: a failed call returns a GraphQL errors entry, not a field on the result, and data may be null or partial. Read the entry's extensions.code and message; every shape and code is in the Error reference.

Example:

GraphQL

mutation BulkDeleteProductVariants($input: ProductVariantBulkDeleteInput!) {
  bulkDeleteProductVariants(input: $input) {
    id
    status
    type
    createdAt
    error
    failed
    failures {
      id
      code
      name
      message
      sku
    }
  }
}
