# Receive product data in response to PUT/POST calls

#### What's new

It became possible to reduce the number of <mark style="color:$success;">`GET`</mark> calls to the REST API – now, when you make PUT/POST calls, you can receive full or partial product data in the response JSON.

#### Changes in API

Additional query params added to <mark style="color:blue;">`POST`</mark> `/products` and <mark style="color:purple;">`PUT`</mark> `/products/{id}` requests:

* `returnItem` when `true` adds product data to the response JSON instead of its standard fields.
* `responseFields` allows you to limit received fields similarly to how it works with <mark style="color:$success;">`GET`</mark> requests
