openapi: 3.0.1 info: title: Canto PIM bulk_products_catalogs imports API description: "\n[Canto APIs](https://api.canto.com) enable seamless synchronization between the PIM + DAM and external systems that rely on accurate, up-to-date product content. \nThe API outlined here provides programmatic access to Canto’s Product Hub (PIM). The Product Hub API allows authorized systems to create, retrieve, update, and manage rich product data for use across digital channels, e-commerce platforms, and other target or source systems. \n \nKey Capabilities
\nThe Canto Product Hub API enables full product data management:\n1. Product Record Management: Create, read, update, and delete product entries including structured metadata, taxonomy, categories, and references.\n2. Attribute & Schema Configuration: Access and manage custom product attributes and classification structures\n3. Webhooks: Trigger updates or publish product datasets to downstream systems and integration pipelines.\n \nAPI Design\n- The PIM API adheres to RESTful principles, supporting standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE).\n- JSON is the default payload format for both requests and responses.\n\nHTTP Status Code Conventions
\nBelow are general HTTP codes applicable across most endpoints:
\n- 200, 201, 204 – Successful operations (retrieval, creation, update, deletion).\n- 400 – Bad request. Input payloads did not conform to the expected schema or required parameters were missing.\n- 401 / 403 – Authentication or authorization failed.\n- 404 – The route or resource was not found.\n- 409 – Conflict in resource state (e.g., duplicate product identifier).\n- 429 - Too many requests. See Rate Limits below.\n- 500 – An unexpected server error occurred.\n- 502 / 503 / 504 – Infrastructure issues such as load balancer, service unavailability, or timeouts.\n\nAPI Rate Limits
\nRate limits are how many API calls you can make in a given time frame. If your call exceeds the pre-defined rate limit, you will run into a “429” http error-code. After which, you will need to wait until you can make another API call.\n\nPIM API Rate Limit: 5 requests/second\n" version: v1.0.1 servers: - url: https://{tenantSubdomain}.{region}/api/v1/pim/ variables: tenantSubdomain: default: demo region: enum: - canto.com - canto.global - canto.de - au.canto.com - ca.canto.com default: canto.com security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: imports description: " API endpoint for importing products from a CSV file.\n Supports multipart form data uploads with import configuration.\n" paths: /imports: post: tags: - imports summary: Import products from CSV description: " Creates a new product import job from a CSV file.\n\n The CSV file should be uploaded as multipart form data along with\n the channel template and channel format IDs for processing the import.\n" operationId: post_api_v1_imports requestBody: content: application/json: schema: required: - channel_format_id - channel_template_id - file type: object properties: file: type: string description: The CSV file to import (multipart form data) channel_template_id: type: string description: Channel template ID that contains the custom attribute mappings channel_format_id: type: string description: Channel format ID that contains the variation format settings product_type_id: type: string description: Product type ID to assign to imported products product_category_id: type: string description: Product category ID to assign to imported products product_category_header: type: string description: Product category header in CSV to use to dynamically assign the product category (max 255 chars) product_category_id_header: type: string description: Product category ID header in CSV to use to dynamically assign the product category (max 255 chars) multipart/form-data: schema: required: - channel_format_id - channel_template_id - file type: object properties: file: type: string description: The CSV file to import (multipart form data) channel_template_id: type: string description: Channel template ID that contains the custom attribute mappings channel_format_id: type: string description: Channel format ID that contains the variation format settings product_type_id: type: string description: Product type ID to assign to imported products product_category_id: type: string description: Product category ID to assign to imported products product_category_header: type: string description: Product category header in CSV to use to dynamically assign the product category (max 255 chars) product_category_id_header: type: string description: Product category ID header in CSV to use to dynamically assign the product category (max 255 chars) required: true responses: '400': description: Missing required parameters or invalid file format content: {} '404': description: Template or format not found content: {} '422': description: Invalid import configuration content: {} components: securitySchemes: bearerAuth: type: http scheme: bearer bearerFormat: AccessToken x-original-swagger-version: '2.0'
