Introducing standardized and custom product types to GraphQL Admin API
API
Effective January 01, 2022
We’ve added two new fields to the Product object, standardizedProductType and customProductType. The standardized type is a new data primitive that links products to the Shopify Product Taxonomy. We use this today to determine product eligibility for the Shop app and as a part of our BFCM Notebook. We will see future experiences using the standardized product type. The custom type provides further granularity than the standardized type allows.
