Archive Promotion Code

Permanently archive a promotion code in your store.

Irreversible

Archiving hides the code from default listings and deactivates it at the payment provider, so it cannot be redeemed at checkout. There is no /unarchive — archive is final.

For a reversible "pause this code" use PATCH /promotion-codes/{id} with {"active": false} instead.

The archived code:

  • still exists and can be fetched directly by ID, or via the list with ?status=archived
  • has status: "archived", is_hidden: true, and published: false
  • cannot be redeemed at checkout

Calling this endpoint on an already-archived code is a no-op (returns 200 with the current state).
