On 1 August 2024*, we will change the behavior of the publish field when importing Product data. The following changes will reduce the complexity of importing Product data, and will prevent unintended publishing:

You can only use the publish field to publish or unpublish Products when importing Products or Product drafts.
When importing Embedded Prices, Product Variants, or Product Variant Patches:
- If a Product is currently unpublished, then it will not be published even if publish is true.
- The Product's current projection will not be replaced by the staged projection.

*The original date of this change was 22 April 2024. We have extended the date to give users additional time to adapt to this change.
