Illustration for the Product SKU-Product Code Match

The user should also make sure that the Product SKU in Bigcommerce maps with the intended product SKU in Artifi. 

Illustration for the Variant SKU-Variant Code Match

Also the variant SKU in Bigcommerce must map with the Product code present for the same product in Artifi variants, this needs to be ensured. If a product needs to have variants then in such a case one variant should be set as default.

Product List Page

Once the product is set up on BigCommerce then we can see the product on the list page.

Product Display Page

Clicking the product on the PLP page will redirect you to the display page, where you can view the product along with its defined components and attributes.
