I am able to find the REST API docs for WooCommerce: https://woocommerce.github.io/woocommerce-rest-api-docs/#create-a-product but am unable to figure out how to create a subscription product via. this API.

I am able to also edit a user's subscription once it has been created via the REST API: https://prospress.github.io/subscriptions-rest-api-docs/ however I don't see any documentation for how to create subscription products.

I am able to create a simple subscription product with the following code:

data = {
            "name": subscription_product_name,
            "type": "subscription",
            "regular_price": subscription_product_price,
        }
wcapi.post("products", data)

However, the price is set incorrectly, and I am unable to figure out the fields that would be used to set the signup_fee, billing period, and other various fields.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The API endpoint for creating a WooCommerce product is http://www.example.com//wp-json/wc/v3/products The subscription length, interval... etc are passed as metadata.

Passing the below JSON can create a simple subscription product
