Decrease or increase qty in stock for specific variation
When your integration changes in stock quantity of product variation in a store pretty often, it becomes harder and harder to keep track of how many items are actually in stock. For example, when at one point of time you have 3 items in stock and 5 in the very next second, then using the specific values can result in incorrect stock quantity.
This method solves this very problem: you can increase or decrease the product variation's stock quantity by a delta quantity. For example, if you need to decrease quantity by 10 items, you can use this method.
This method is also available for product inventory
You can use the checkLowStockNotification as a request parameter. If true, makes Ecwid check whether the low stock email notification needs to be sent to merchant after request is sent.
