Governed ability

Update WooCommerce product variation

aafm/wc-update-product-variation Guarded write

Updates a product variation by id, changing only the fields you send. Requires the manage-WooCommerce capability.

How it is governed

The same model as every ability in the plugin, stated for this one.

  • Off until you enable it

    Like every ability, Update WooCommerce product variation ships switched off. You turn it on one at a time, and an update never widens access on its own.

  • Guarded write

    Writes stay conservative, and the plugin re-checks the capability before the call runs.

  • Capability gated

    A connection only sees Update WooCommerce product variation if the user you connected can run it, and the plugin checks that capability again before it executes.

  • Every call audited

    The call is written to the log in your own database, denials included, with the argument keys but never the values.
