Mechanic is a development platform for Shopify. :)
If you prefer to categorize your products using manual collections, but you still need your tags to match up, use this task to monitor your manual collection and automatically tag the products it contains.
Runs when a user triggers the task and when a collection is updated. Configuration includes collection tag and collection.
If you prefer to categorize your products using manual collections, but you still need your tags to match up, use this task to monitor your manual collection and automatically tag the products it contains.
Run this task manually to auto-tag products in your configured collection, and to untag any products that are not in this collection. Otherwise, this task will run automatically whenever the configured collection is updated, which includes the addition or removal of products.
This task only supports manual collections, not automated collections. (Learn about the differences here.) Configure this task with your collection ID. Learn how to find this.
Mechanic is designed to benefit everybody: merchants, customers, developers, agencies, Gurus, everybody.
That’s why we make it easy to configure automation without code, why we make it easy to tweak the underlying code once tasks are installed, and why we publish it all here for everyone to learn from.
