As a general rule, changes in products don’t affect existing subscriptions.

However, there are several exceptions.

Adding and removing endpoints

When you add a new endpoint to the product or remove an existing one, the following rules apply:

  • If an endpoint is added to a product, it appears in existing subscriptions to that product too.

  • If this endpoint is then deleted, it gets deleted from the existing subscriptions too.

  • Endpoints added to a product before a subscription is created remain part of the subscription even if the endpoint is later deleted from the product.

Adding and removing billable metrics

  • If you add new billable metrics/rate limits to the product, they don’t appear in the existing subscriptions.

  • If you delete a billable metric from the product, it doesn’t get deleted from existing subscriptions.

Subscription upgrades/downgrades

Whenever you modify the Allow switching to following products config of a product, it has effect on existing subscriptions.
