APIs for products ordered

Allowing sellers to update the status of a product will require having to set up four different APIs, including an API to retrieve the possible status values. Then, the actual status update actions will need APIs to handle updates to the order itself as the status is changed in order to initiate related actions, such as increasing the stock quantity of a canceled product, and to create a charge on the customer's credit card when a product is being processed. In the following sections, we will look at the API implementations for retrieving possible status values, updating an order status, canceling a product order, and processing a charge for an ordered product.
