Select products and variants

Choose which products and variants a task applies to, and exclude the ones you want to keep unchanged.

The Apply to products card decides which products the task changes. The Preview on the right updates a moment after you change anything here.

The four ways to pick products

Option	Use it when
All products	Every product in the store should change.
Collections	You want everything inside one or more collections.
Specific products	You want to hand-pick products.
Match conditions	You want products that match rules such as tag, vendor, type, status or date.

All products

No further settings. You can still exclude products (see below) and, for variant fields, filter variants.

Collections

Type in Searching collections or click Browser to open Shopify's collection picker. Tick the collections you want and click Add. Both manual and automated collections work.

The collection picker

When you have picked more than one collection, choose how they combine under Products must match:

• any collection: a product is included if it belongs to at least one of the selected collections.

• all collections: a product is included only if it belongs to every selected collection.

Collections mode

For very large collections the preview may show Preview unavailable. You can still save and run the task, or split the work into several tasks with fewer collections each.

Specific products

Type in Searching products or click Browser to open Shopify's product picker. You can search by title, product ID, barcode or SKU, tick as many products as you need and click Add. Selected products are listed under the search box; click the × next to a product to remove it.

Match conditions

Build one or more rules. Each rule is a field, a comparator and a value. Click Add another condition to add a rule and the trash icon to remove one. Under Products must match choose all conditions (every rule must be true) or any condition (one rule is enough).

Match conditions

Field	Comparators	Value
Title	equals, not equal, contains, does not contain	Text
Status	is	Active, Draft or Archived
Handle	equals, not equal, contains, does not contain	Text
Collection	is	Pick one collection with Select collection
Product type	equals, not equal, contains, does not contain	Text
Product vendor	equals, not equal, contains, does not contain	Text
Product tag	equals, not equal, contains, does not contain	Text
Created at	is before, is after	Date
Updated at	is before, is after	Date

Exclude products

When All products or Collections is selected, an Exclude products card appears. Tick Specific products and pick the products that must stay unchanged. Excluded products still appear in the preview, greyed out, so you can see they are skipped.

Exclude products and Apply to variants

Apply to variants

For variant fields such as Price, SKU or Weight, an Apply to variants card appears.

• All variants: every variant of each matching product changes.

• Match conditions: only variants that match your rules change. The other variants of the same product are left alone and shown greyed out in the preview.

Field	Comparators
SKU	equals, contains, does not contain, is empty, is not empty
Price	equals, not equal, less than, less than or equal, greater than, greater than or equal
Compare at price	the same as Price, plus: is not set, is greater than price, is less than price, is greater than or equal to price, is less than or equal to price
Option name	equals, contains, does not contain
Option value	equals, contains, does not contain

Choose all conditions or any condition under Variant must match, exactly like product conditions.

Example. To put only the medium size on sale: select the field Price, keep All products, then under Apply to variants choose Match conditions with Option value equals M.

How many products can a task update?

The number of products one task can process depends on your plan. If your selection is larger than the limit, the confirmation dialog tells you how many products will be updated and the task finishes as Partially complete. After upgrading you can press Continue change to process the rest. See Plans and pricing.
