Validate product and retrieve price

To make sure you have an order-able product, you can validate the attributes and values. Send the attributes and values in a POST request to /api/products/{sku}.

If you can order your product, you will receive the following data: price and promised arrival date

Small note, the delivery days are working days, so holidays and weekends needs to be added to get the actual date.

If the product is invalid, you will retrieve a 400 status code.
