How Do I Get Product JSON in Shopify?

Last updated on January 8, 2023 @ 6:16 am

Product JSON is used to store and organize product information in Shopify. This includes product title, images, variants, options, and more.

JSON is a format that is easy for humans to read and write, and is also easy for machines to parse and generate.

In order to get started with using Product JSON in Shopify, you will first need to create a private app. A private app is an app that you create yourself, for use in your own Shopify store.

You can create a private app by going to the Apps section of your Shopify admin, and then selecting the Manage private apps link. From there, you will be able to create a new private app.

Once you have created your private app, you will be given a API key and API password. These are used to authenticate your app with Shopify. You will need to pass these credentials in order to make any API calls.

Now that you have your API key and password, you can start making API calls. The first API call you will need to make is the products list call.

This call will return a list of all products in your shop. To make this call, you will need to use the following URL:

<https://your-shop-name.myShopify.com/admin/products.json?limit=250&page=1>

Replace with the name of your shop. The limit parameter specifies the number of products per page, and the page parameter specifies the page number.

PRO TIP: If you are working with Shopify’s API, it is important to be aware that there is no guarantee that the product JSON will remain the same. While Shopify may not make breaking changes to the product JSON schema, they could add new fields or remove existing ones. As such, it is important to always check the product JSON schema when working with the API.

This API call will return a JSON object that contains a list of all products in your shop. Each product will have its own entry in the list, with information such as the product title, image URLs, variants, options, etc.
