Shopify Products

Create, update, and bulk-import Shopify products. Produces live products in the store via the GraphQL Admin API or CSV import.

Prerequisites

• Admin API access token (use the shopify-setup skill if not configured)
• Store URL and API version from shopify.config.json or .dev.vars

Workflow

Step 1: Gather Product Data

Determine what the user wants to create or update:

• Product basics: title, description (HTML), product type, vendor, tags
• Variants: options (size, colour, material), prices, SKUs, inventory quantities
• Images: URLs to upload, or local files
• SEO: page title, meta description, URL handle
• Organisation: collections, product type, tags

Accept data from:

• Direct conversation (user describes products)
• Spreadsheet/CSV file (user provides a file)
• Website scraping (user provides a URL to extract from)

Step 2: Choose Method

Scenario	Method
1-5 products	GraphQL mutations
6-20 products	GraphQL with batching
20+ products	CSV import via admin
Updates to existing	GraphQL mutations
Inventory adjustments	inventorySetQuantities mutation
