Making ProductItem.Status work with WebService APIv2

I'm building an application that integrates with the magento commerce engine, and I've got through most of the issues with the API, but I'm stuck trying to get the Status to work when I'm adding a new product

_mage.catalogProductCreateEntity si = new _mage.catalogProductCreateEntity();

//...lots of other attributes setup correctly

si.status = "Enabled";

productID = ms.catalogProductCreate(sessionID, "simple", mSettings.ProductAttributeSetID.ToString, posProductcode, si, "default");

the product is getting created in the database correctly, but it is neither Enabled or Disabled, and requires a manual edit.

Solution

  • after Looking hard this turns out to be pretty easy.

    si.status="1";

    And that is "Enabled" and "0" for Disabled.
