Products are the items in your catalog sold to customers. For simplicity and flexibility, there's no categories or hierarchies of product — everything purchased starts with a product entity.
Products work with prices, which describe how much a product costs and how often it's billed.
Product entities hold information like:
- What the product is called.
- How it should be taxed.
- A description of the product.
- An image to show at checkout and on invoices.
Once you've created a product, you can relate it to a price. Add prices to checkouts, transactions, and subscriptions to let customers purchase products.
There's no delete operation for products. Use the update a product operation to archive products when you no longer need them. To learn more, see Delete entities
