The Inventory service keeps track of stock levels for product variants. The Inventory API is used for example when building integrations between POS systems and e-commerce systems.

Explore the sections in the following to get an overview of the different parts of the Inventory API.
API clients can list current stock levels and update inventory balances for products. The service automatically decreases the stock when a purchase is made with the Zettle POS application. Tracking is based on moving product items between Locations. See How inventories work for concept descriptions.
To be able to work with inventory balances, tracking must be enabled for the products you want to manage inventory balances for. Inventory tracking is enabled on a product basis and can be enabled/disabled at any time.
When an organization starts using the inventory, the inventory service will generate a set of default locations. Location endpoints are used for retrieving these locations. The location UUIDs are then used with other inventory management functionality to manage stock levels.
This area contains endpoints used for managing tracked products, and for retrieving and updating stock information. Here you can fetch and update inventory balances for specific products and locations.
This functionality is used for defining low stock levels and updating the low stock alert settings. This is done to ensure merchants have the right inventory balance to meet current demand without having an excess in stock. Through these endpoints you can retrieve and update the low stock configurations.
