Creates a product or bundle with the attributes that are defined in the body.

Product Types​

Product Experience Manager automatically assigns types to the products you create. You can filter on product types. Product types can also be used in catalogs. For example, in your catalog, you can filter on parent so that only your parent products are displayed in your storefront.

See Product Types.

Product Tags​

You can use product tags to store or assign a key word against a product or service that you sell in your store. The product tag can then be used to describe or label that product. Product tags represent similarities between products who do not share the same attributes. Using product tags means that you can group your products together, for example, by brand, category, subcategory, colors, types, industries, and so on.

See Product Tags.

Personalizing products​

You can allow your shoppers to add custom text to a product when adding product items to their carts. This is useful, for example, if you have a product like a T-shirt that can be personalized or you sell greetings cards that can be printed with your shoppers personalized messages. You can do this by configuring the the custom_inputs attribute.

When configuring the custom_inputs attribute:

  • You can rename input to something more representative of the input that shoppers are adding, for example, message or front.
  • name is the name that is displayed in your storefront.
  • You can add validation rules. For example, the input field must be a string and/or up to 255 characters in length. The limit is 255 characters.
  • You can specify if the input field is required.

Curating Products​

You can curate the products in a node. Product curation allows you to promote specific products within each node of your hierarchies, enabling you to create unique product collections in your storefront. For example, you may find you have an abundance of cotton T-Shirts and you want to promote these products to the top of the product list. When a shopper navigates to T-shirts, the cotton T-Shirts are displayed first. See Update a node.

Bundles​

With Product Experience Manager, you can use the products API to create and manage bundles. A bundle is a purchasable product, comprising of one or more products that you want to sell together.

See Bundles.
