Shopify is the source of truth for every product, variant, and inventory change Slingshot uses.
Product and variant matching
A product can have several variants, such as size or color. Slingshot records the exact variant selected by the shopper, not only the parent product.
When inventory changes, Slingshot checks that requested variant again. It sends only when Shopify says the variant can be purchased.
Review product demand
Open Products and switch between product and variant views. Depending on your plan and available data, you can compare:
- unsent demand;
- notifications sent;
- clicks;
- conversions;
- attributed revenue.
Use the variant view when a single option is creating most of the demand.
Availability details that matter
- The product must be active and available to the Online Store channel.
- The selected variant must be unavailable for the signup form to appear.
- A variant configured to continue selling at zero inventory may count as available.
- Inventory must be available for the relevant Shopify location and sales setup.
Slingshot does not edit your inventory or product settings.
