REST API – Add meta_data with multiple values using same key

Replies: 0

Hello, I am adding a new product via the REST API v2.

I am using a Wholesaler plugin that can restrict product visibility based on Wholesale Roles. This setting is saved on the backend in the meta data.

There are two roles that I would like to give access to: Wholesale Customer and Wholesale View Only. They are both present in the meta data, but only the last one gets added, or perhaps the first gets added, then overwritten by the second; I don’t know. The key in question is “wwpp_product_wholesale_visibility_filter”

Here is the meta_data part of my request:

{
   "meta_data":[
      {
         "key":"wholesale_customer_have_wholesale_price",
         "value":"yes"
      },
      {
         "key":"wholesale_customer_wholesale_price",
         "value":"145"
      },
      {
         "key":"wholesale_viewonly_have_wholesale_price",
         "value":"yes"
      },
      {
         "key":"wholesale_viewonly_wholesale_price",
         "value":"145"
      },
      {
         "key":"wwpp_post_meta_enable_quantity_discount_rule",
         "value":"yes"
      },
      {
         "key":"wwpp_product_wholesale_visibility_filter",
         "value":"wholesale_customer"
      },
      {
         "key":"wwpp_product_wholesale_visibility_filter",
         "value":"wholesale_viewonly"
      }
   ]
}
