# reactivateProductRelation

mutation · in the family [Product relation](/reference/product-relation/)

## What it does

Reactivate a product relationship — “goes with”, “replaces”, “upsell” links between products — bring a deactivated record back into use.

Reactivate a ProductRelation by id; requires the unrestricted capability + the record's CURRENT revision. Deny-by-default + the authority / occ guards. The optional reason rides the transition events.

## Who may call it

Capability area: **Catalog editing** — Changing what you sell — the details of styles, products, variants and their identifiers.

- Owner
- Manager
- Associate Manager
- An API key whose scope allows `api:reactivateProductRelation`

## Arguments

| Name | Type | Required | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | [ID](/types/#scalars) `ID!` | yes | The id of the record. |
| `revision` | [ID](/types/#scalars) `ID!` | yes | The revision id you read on the record; the change is refused if an edit landed in the meantime. |
| `reason` | [String](/types/#scalars) | no | No further notes. |

## Returns

[ProductRelation](/types/ProductRelation/) `ProductRelation!` — A product relation — a TYPED, DIRECTED, RANKED suggestion edge between two Products (alternative | replacement | accessory | upsell | cross-sell — canned, AT-extensible). Parent = the SOURCE Product (relations die with their source); the TARGET is gate-protected from doom while suggested. Directed by design — symmetric intent = create both directions. Relation identity (source x target x relationType) is unique (a live duplicate is CONFLICT/IDENTITY_TAKEN naming the holder; a doomed one is taken over). Variant-level matching is DERIVED at read time — a later read-side slice.
