All about Product Linking- SHEIN CedCommerce Integration

  1. What is Product Linking ?
    Product Linking is a process of associating SHEIN products with their corresponding Shopify products to facilitate seamless integration and management. This ensures that SHEIN products are accurately represented in your Shopify store.

  2. When should I use Automatic Linking, and when should I use Manual Linking?
    Use Automatic Linking when you want a quicker and automated way to link SHEIN products to Shopify products by clicking “Import From SHEIN“. It is suitable when your products meet the conditions mentioned in the automatic linking case, such as matching SKUs and variant counts.

    Use Manual Linking when the automatic linking conditions are not met, and you need to link SHEIN and Shopify products manually. This is useful when the products have the same number of variants but may not meet the SKU matching criteria.

  3. Can I unlink or re-link products after the initial linking process?
    Yes, you can usually unlink or re-link SHEIN products to Shopify products as needed. This can be done manually.

  4. How does Automatic Linking work?
    In Automatic Linking, when a product is imported from SHEIN, we verify that the Seller SKU of the SHEIN product matches the SKU of the corresponding Shopify product. Additionally, each variant in the SHEIN product must have an equivalent variant in the Shopify product.

  5. Can you elaborate on the conditions for Automatic Linking?
    For Automatic Linking to occur, the following conditions must be met:
    Seller SKU of SHEIN product = SKU of Shopify product.
    Number of variants in SHEIN product = Number of variants in Shopify product.
    Each SHEIN variant's Seller SKU must match each Shopify variant.

  6. What happens in Manual Linking?
    In Manual Linking, a user can manually link a SHEIN product to a Shopify product. However, this can only be done if the SHEIN product has the same number of variants as the Shopify product.
  1. Are there any additional requirements for Manual Linking?
    Yes, for Manual Linking to be successful, the SHEIN product must have an identical number of variants as the Shopify product.
