Link to PromoSync (Bulk Action)

The Link to PromoSync bulk action registers the products you select in Shopify’s products list with PromoSync’s backend. Once registered, every subsequent sync (inventory, prices, metafields) can target each product directly instead of rediscovering it from the catalog.

This action was previously called Sync Duplicate Products.

When to Use This Version

• Right after duplicating a single product in Shopify (Products > … > Duplicate). The copy inherits PSRESTful metafields but has a new Shopify ID PromoSync doesn’t know about yet.
• After Connecting Existing Products writes PSRESTful metafields onto a known batch.
• Whenever you want to register a specific selection without scanning the rest of your catalog.

For routine maintenance, periodic safety nets, or bulk Matrixify imports across the whole store, use the Quick Sync card on the PromoSync dashboard instead.

How to Run It

1. In Shopify Admin, go to Products.
2. Tick the products you want to register.
3. Click the ... button, then Apps > Bulk Product Sync.
4. In the dropdown, pick Link to PromoSync.
5. Click Submit.

The job runs in the background. Products that are already in PromoSync’s registry are quietly ignored, so re-running is safe and cheap.
