Ask Sidekick about your app data

Questions you can ask Shopify Sidekick about your badges, badge groups, Extra Features, discounts, badge performance, and how to use Sami Product Labels.

Sidekick can look up everything you have set up in Sami Product Labels. This page lists what it can find for each part of the app, with questions you can copy and adapt.

Sidekick says active for a badge that is switched on and paused for one set to Draft in the app. You can use either word in your questions.

Badges and labels

Ask Sidekick to find badges by name, by status, or by kind — badges sit on the product image, labels sit near the product title.

Try asking:

  • "What badges do I have?"

  • "Which of my labels are paused?"

  • "Find my Free shipping badge."

For each badge, Sidekick returns its status, which products it targets, and when it was last edited. Results are sorted with the most recently edited first.

Check how one badge is set up

Ask about a single badge to see its full setup without opening the editor.

Try asking:

  • "How is my Black Friday badge configured?"

  • "When does my Summer sale badge stop showing?"

  • "Which products does the New arrival badge target?"

Sidekick answers with:

Detail
What it shows

Status

Active or paused.

Targeted products

The products you picked by hand, by name. Beyond 20, the rest are given as a count.

Conditions

Every display condition written out in plain text, with product and collection names instead of IDs.

Schedule

The start and end dates set under Visibility Date & Countdown.

Group

The badge group it belongs to, if any.

Read a badge's setup, then open it in the editor straight from the answer.

A product or collection that no longer exists in your store appears as (deleted). Open the badge and update its conditions.

Badge groups

Try asking:

  • "What badge groups do I have?"

  • "Which group is my Secure checkout badge in?"

  • "What's inside my Trust group?"

Sidekick lists each badge group with its status and the names of the badges it contains.

Trust badges, highlights, and banners

Try asking:

  • "Show me my trust badges."

  • "Which banners are active?"

  • "Do I have a highlight for shipping?"

Sidekick searches your Extra Features — trust badges, highlights, and banners — and returns each one's name and status.

Discounts

Try asking:

  • "Which discounts are running right now?"

  • "What is the code for my summer discount?"

  • "Which of my discounts have expired?"

For each discount created in the app, Sidekick returns:

Detail
What it shows

Type

Automatic discount or discount code.

Code

The code customers enter, for discount codes.

Amount

A percentage or a fixed amount.

Schedule

Start date and, if set, end date.

Status

Active — running now. Expired — switched on but past its end date. Paused — switched off.

Sidekick only sees discounts created in Sami Product Labels. Discounts you created in Shopify's own Discounts page do not appear.

Badge performance

Try asking:

  • "Are my badges working?"

  • "How did my badges do last month?"

  • "Which badge brings in the most revenue?"

Sidekick reports the same figures as the Analytics page — add to cart, orders, and revenue — and compares them with the previous period of the same length.

  • Date range — the last 30 days unless you name dates, for example "from September 1 to September 15".

  • Top badges — ask which badge performs best and Sidekick ranks your top 5 badges by revenue.

How to use the app

Ask any "How do I…" question about Sami Product Labels and Sidekick looks it up in this documentation.

Try asking:

  • "How do I create an image badge?"

  • "How do I show a badge only in one country?"

  • "How do I place a trust badge with a shortcode?"

Sidekick answers with the steps from the matching help page and a link to it, plus a few related pages. If the documentation does not cover your question, Sidekick says so — contact support for anything it cannot answer.

Tips for better answers

  • Use your own names. Name the badge, group, product, or discount exactly as it appears in the app.

  • Narrow long lists. Sidekick returns up to 20 results. Add a status or a type — "paused labels", "active banners" — to find what you need.

  • Ask a follow-up. After a list, ask about one item — "Tell me more about the second badge" — for its full setup.
