For example, you can specify [`bundles: true`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/input-objects/ProductClaimOwnershipInput#field-bundles) in the `claimOwnership` field to let an app add a [product configuration extension](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/product-merchandising/bundles/product-configuration-extension/add-merchant-config-ui). * collections​To​Join [\[ID!\]](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/ID) A list of collection IDs to associate with the product. * combined​Listing​Role [Combined​Listings​Role](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/enums/CombinedListingsRole) The role of the product in a [combined listing](https://shopify.dev/apps/build/product-merchandising/combined-listings). * description​Html [String](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/String) The description of the product, with HTML tags. For example, the description might include bold `` and italic `` text. * gift​Card [Boolean](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/Boolean) Whether the product is a gift card. * gift​Card​Template​Suffix [String](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/String) The [theme template](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/architecture/templates) that's used when customers view a gift card in a store. * handle [String](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/String) A unique, human-readable string that's used to identify the product in URLs. A handle can contain letters, hyphens (`-`), and numbers, but no spaces. If no handle is explicitly provided, then the title is used to construct the product's handle. For example, if a product is titled "Black Sunglasses" and no handle is provided, then the handle `black-sunglasses` is generated (unless that handle is already taken, in which case a suffix is added to make the handle unique). * metafields [\[Metafield​Input!\]](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/input-objects/MetafieldInput) The [custom fields](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/custom-data) to associate with the product for the purposes of adding and storing additional information. * product​Options [\[Option​Create​Input!\]](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/input-objects/OptionCreateInput) A list of product options and option values. Maximum product options: three. There's no limit on the number of option values. * product​Type [String](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/String) The [product type](https://help.shopify.com/manual/products/details/product-type) that merchants define. * requires​Selling​Plan [Boolean](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/Boolean) Whether the product can only be purchased with a [selling plan](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/purchase-options/subscriptions/selling-plans). Products that are sold on subscription (`requiresSellingPlan: true`) can be updated only for online stores. If you update a product to be subscription-only (`requiresSellingPlan: true`), then the product is unpublished from all channels except the online store. * seo [SEOInput](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/input-objects/SEOInput) The [SEO title and description](https://help.shopify.com/manual/promoting-marketing/seo/adding-keywords) that are associated with a product. * status [Product​Status](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/enums/ProductStatus) The [product status](https://help.shopify.com/manual/products/details/product-details-page#product-status), which controls visibility across all sales channels. * tags [\[String!\]](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/String) A list of searchable keywords that are associated with the product. For example, a merchant might apply the `sports` and `summer` tags to products that are associated with sportwear for summer. Updating `tags` overwrites any existing tags that were previously added to the product. To add new tags without overwriting existing tags, use the [`tagsAdd`](https://shopify.dev/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/tagsadd) mutation. * template​Suffix [String](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/String) The [theme template](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/architecture/templates) that's used when customers view a product in a store. * title [String](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/String) The name for the product that displays to customers. If no handle is explicitly provided, then the title is used to construct the product's handle. For example, if a product is titled "Black Sunglasses" and no handle is provided, then the handle `black-sunglasses` is generated. * vendor [String](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/scalars/String) The name of the product's vendor. *** ## Mutations using this input * [product​Create.product](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productCreate#arguments-product) ARGUMENT *** ## Map ### Mutations using this input * [product​Create.product](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/mutations/productCreate#arguments-product)
