Hello everyone,  
I’m writing a code that will check and update a “price” value of an existing line item based on an according product’s price (f.e.: if product’s price was changed after creation of a line item, or some error ocured while creating it, and etc.). To do this, I’m sending a PATCH reqiest (with a JSON body contayning a new price) to the url:  
[https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/line\_items/{line\_item\_id](https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/line_items/%7Bline_item_id)}  
But, unfortunately it doesn’t have any effect - despite getting 200 response, after running a GET request the “price” value still remains unchanged.  
Can anyone help me to figure out the reason?  
Thank you all in advance for your help.  
P.S. - while I’m at it, might as well ask - how can i check whether a discount was applied to the deal using api, as this information doesn’t appear in a simple GET response?

Hey, [@G\_Gorgiladze](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/723475) 👋 Thank for your question. I hope you got this resolved, but if not, here’s an example I made of updating the price of a line item via our API.

Steps:

- I created a new Line Item and associated it to an existing deal

- I made a Patch request to update the price

- Verified the price change via a Get request (to be thorough)
