The product details page gives you a single place to inspect everything Layers has synced for a product — featured media, the full variant list with prices and inventory, options, metafields, and category metadata — without leaving the dashboard or jumping to Shopify.

​
When to use this

  • You want to confirm Layers has the latest data for a product after editing it in Shopify.
  • You need to verify variant pricing, inventory, or selected options before pinning a product in a merchandising rule.
  • You’re debugging why a product isn’t appearing where you expect and want to inspect its tags, metafields, or status.

​
Steps

  1. In the dashboard, go to Products.
  2. Find the product in the list and click its title (or the row).
  3. Review the product detail page.

​
What you can see

The page is split into a media-and-summary area, a variants table, and a metafields table.
  • Media — A hero image, secondary images, and any additional photos in a grid. The featured media (if set) appears first.
  • Status badge — Shows whether the product is active, draft, or archived in Shopify.
  • Summary — Vendor, product type, handle, tags, category, the published date, and a Channels field showing which sales channels the product is published to.
  • Variants — Every variant with its title, SKU, price, compare-at price, inventory, and selected options. A Channels column shows which sales channels each variant is published to. When a product has many variants and a shared first option (for example, color), Layers groups them so the table stays readable. Click a variant row to open a side sheet with that variant’s full metafield list and a Sales channels section listing every publication the variant is available on. Each row also has an Actions column with a Sync inventory from Shopify button — see Manually resync variant inventory.
  • Metafields — A table of namespace, key, and value for every product-level metafield Layers has synced.

​
Actions

The page header provides quick actions for the product:
  • Sync from Shopify — Refresh this product’s data without resyncing the rest of your catalog. Useful when a Shopify edit hasn’t propagated yet. See Manually resync a single product.
  • View on Shopify — Open the product in your Shopify admin in a new tab.

​
Tips

  • Use the breadcrumb at the top of the page to jump back to Products or to the dashboard root.
  • Variant rows show a thumbnail when the variant has its own featured media — useful for spot-checking that color or material variants point at the right photo.
  • If a variant’s inventory_quantity looks stale, run Sync from Shopify from the page header to pull the latest values, or use the per-variant Sync inventory from Shopify action in the variants table to refresh just that variant.
  • If a product looks published in Shopify but doesn’t appear on the storefront, compare the Channels field in the summary with the Channels column in the variants table. A product-level channel with no matching variant channels usually means the storefront and search will treat the product as unpublished — run Sync from Shopify to reconcile it.
