The limitations on the eCom API (write) permissions is very much an issue. At least for the product details, height/length/width/weight/description there is a viable workaround using the .csv file import tool. Today, I realized that I am not able to write to related products either. Technically I am not sure why I don't have the ability to write to that field as it calls for ecom product id's, nothing related to Retail at all. Also, there isn't any plausible workaround for me to use such as a csv file import. The only option is for me to manually update 15,000 + products with related products.......not a plausible solution.

While we don't use Lightspeed ECom (hence no Omni either), wouldn't this API endpoint allow you to define related products?
Or is this functionality disabled since the shop is on Omni?
Yeah, that endpoint is disabled due to being on Omni....they really are neglecting their customee base on fixing this issue. They can't resolve the problem of Omni customers not getting access to over half the eCom API functionality but they continue to push out new products like Golf.
