Private offers

At first, create the following:

• Product version with a Subscription pricing plan in its settings. You can only create a private offer for a product that has an active version with a Subscription pricing plan.
• Subscription pricing plan you need to specify in your private offer's settings. You can use the same plan as in the product version's settings.

You need the marketplace.privateOffers.publisher role to use private offers.
