# Updating products in bulk

To update products or product combinations asynchronously in bulk, follow the instructions for [updating an individual or base product](https://docs.digitalriver.com/commerce-api/admin-apis/manage-products-asynchronous-api/creating-or-updating-a-product#updating-an-individual-or-base-product) for each product and [product variation](https://docs.digitalriver.com/commerce-api/admin-apis/manage-products-asynchronous-api/adding-or-updating-a-product-variation#updating-a-specific-product-variation). For example, to update 100 products, [send 100 update product requests](https://docs.digitalriver.com/commerce-api/admin-apis/manage-products-asynchronous-api/creating-or-updating-a-product#updating-an-individual-or-base-product).

After creating the products in bulk, [retrieve the tasks for all products](https://docs.digitalriver.com/commerce-api/admin-apis/get-the-task-status-for-a-product-synchronous-api/retrieving-the-tasks-for-products#retrieving-the-tasks-for-all-products) to verify the status of the requests. You can also verify the successful completion of the task by [checking the product history](#product-history-attributes) in [Global Commerce](https://gc.digitalriver.com/gc/ent/login.do). Note that there may be a delay before these changes appear in Global Commerce.
