+
+# Manage product images at the store view level
+
+This topic explains how product image gallery inheritance works in a multi-store Adobe Commerce setup and how to control it using the REST API. These behaviours only apply when your installation has multiple store views. In a single-store setup, all requests target the global scope and inheritance does not apply.
+
+If you are new to the product media API, complete the [Add and manage product images tutorial](/rest/tutorials/image/) first.
+
+## Before you begin
+
+*  An Adobe Commerce instance with at least two store views configured. The examples use `default` and a second store view. See [Add a store view](https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/commerce-admin/stores-sales/site-store/store-views.html) in the Admin documentation.
+
+*  A product with images in all store views, where images currently use the default value (the **Use Default Value** checkbox is enabled in Admin) in each store view.
+
+*  An admin access token. See [Generate an admin token](../../../get-started/authentication/gs-authentication-token.md).
+
+*  A REST client, such as Postman.
+
+## Preserve images during a product update
+
+When you update a product at the store view level, you can control whether the request affects the product's media gallery.
+
+### Omit media_gallery_entries
+
+If the `media_gallery_entries` field is not present in the payload, no changes are made to the product images in that scope. All store views continue to use the default value.
+
+**Endpoint:**
+
+```html
+POST http://domain.com/rest/default/V1/products
+```
+
+<CodeBlock slots="heading, code" repeat="2" languages="JSON, JSON" />
+
+#### Payload
+
+```json
+{
+  "product": {
+    "sku": "MJ03",
+    "name": "product name override in default store view"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Response
+
+```json
+{
+  "sku": "MJ03",
+  "name": "product name override in default store view",
+  "media_gallery_entries": [
+    {
+      "id": 709,
+      "media_type": "image",
+      "label": "",
+      "position": 1,
+      "disabled": false,
+      "types": [
+        "image",
+        "small_image",
+        "thumbnail"
+      ],
+      "file": "\/m\/j\/mj03-black_main_12.jpg"
+    },
+    {
+      "id": 710,
+      "media_type": "image",
+      "label": "",
+      "position": 2,
+      "disabled": false,
+      "types": [],
+      "file": "\/m\/j\/mj03-black_alt1_12.jpg"
+    },
+    {
+      "id": 711,
+      "media_type": "image",
+      "label": "",
+      "position": 3,
+      "disabled": false,
+      "types": [],
+      "file": "\/m\/j\/mj03-black_back_12.jpg"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+After this call, images in each store view continue to implement the **Use Default Value** setting.
+
+### Set media_gallery_entries to null
+
+Setting `media_gallery_entries` to `null` and omitting the field are equivalent. Neither modifies the images currently configured for any store view.
+
+<InlineAlert variant="warning" slots="text"/>
+
+Setting `media_gallery_entries` to an empty array `[]` is **not** the same as `null`. An empty array is treated as an explicit instruction to remove all gallery entries from all store views. Always use `null` or omit the field when you do not intend to modify images.

+      "types": [],
+      "file": "\/m\/j\/mj03-black_back_12.jpg"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+## Override store view image fields
+
+When you retrieve a product and POST it back with the `media_gallery_entries` array populated, the store view fields are explicitly set — overriding any inherited values.
+
+**Step 1.** Retrieve the full product data from the store view you want to update.
+
+**Endpoint:**
+
+```html
+GET http://domain.com/rest/default/V1/products/MJ03
+```
+
+**Step 2.** Use the `media_gallery_entries` from the GET response in an update call.
+
+**Endpoint:**
+
+```html
+POST http://domain.com/rest/default/V1/products
+```
+
+After this call:
+
+*  In the **default store view**: image sort order, label, visibility, and roles are no longer using the default value (**Use Default Value** is unchecked).
+
+*  In the **second store view**: image fields continue to use the default value (unaffected).
+
+## Restore inheritance by setting fields to null
+
+Setting individual image fields to `null` restores the **Use Default Value** state for those fields. This is the equivalent of re-enabling the **Use Default Value** checkbox in the Admin product editor.
+
+The following fields support `null` to restore inheritance:
+
+| Field | Effect of `null` |
+|---|---|
+| `label` | Reverts to the global alt text |
+| `position` | Reverts to the global display order |
+| `disabled` | Reverts to the global visibility setting |
+| `extension_attributes.video_content.video_title` | Reverts to the global video title (video entries only) |
+| `extension_attributes.video_content.video_description` | Reverts to the global video description (video entries only) |

+
+After this call, the **Use Default Value** checkbox is re-enabled for all specified fields in each store view.
+
+## Add a new image at the store view level
+
+When you add a new image using the media endpoint, it becomes visible in all store views.
+
+**Endpoint:**
+
+```html
+POST http://domain.com/rest/default/V1/products/MJ03/media
+```
+
+<CodeBlock slots="heading, code" repeat="2" languages="JSON, JSON" />
+

+      "type": "image/png",
+      "name": "new-image.png"
+    },
+    "types": []
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Response
+
+```json
+3434
+```
+
+The response returns the new image `id`.
+
+After this call:
+
+*  The new image is visible in all store views.
+
+*  In the **default store view**: Images sort order is no longer using the default value. The new image's `label` and `disabled` are not inheriting.
+
+*  In the **second store view**: all image fields continue to use the default value.
+
+## Update a media entry at the store view level
+
+To update a specific image, first retrieve its current data, then send an update.
+
+**Step 1.** Retrieve the image entry.
+
+**Endpoint:**
+
+```html
+GET http://domain.com/rest/default/V1/products/MJ03/media/3434
+```
+
+**Step 2.** Update the entry with the modified fields.
+
+**Endpoint:**
+
+```html
+PUT http://domain.com/rest/default/V1/products/MJ03/media/3434
+```
+
+<CodeBlock slots="heading, code" repeat="2" languages="JSON, JSON" />
+
+#### Payload
+
+```json
+{
+  "entry": {
+    "id": 3434,
+    "media_type": "image",
+    "label": "Updated label for default store view",

+    "disabled": false,
+    "types": [],
+    "file": "\/n\/e\/new-image.png"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Response
+
+```json
+true
+```
+
+After this call:
+
+*  The image is updated in the **default store view**.
+*  In the **default store view**: Images sort order continues to not use the default value.
+*  The **second store view** continues to use the default value (unaffected).
+
+## Delete a media entry
+
+Deleting an image entry removes it from the product across all store views.
+
+**Endpoint:**
+
+```html
+DELETE http://domain.com/rest/default/V1/products/MJ03/media/3434
+```
+
+**Response:**
+
+```json
+true
+```
+
+After this call:
+
+*  The image is deleted from **all store views**
+*  In the **default store view**: Existing images sort order will go back to using default value.
+*  The **second store view** continues to use the default value (unaffected).
