When changes apply

Product Settings changes affect future syncs and pulls. Existing TikTok listings may need Sync or Update from Manage Products after you change rules or dimensions.

Product Settings overview

Automatically Pull Products From Shopify (Recommended): when ON, eligible Shopify products are pulled into the connector. Helper text references tag Silk TikTok — tag-based pull is labeled Coming soon; the toggle still controls auto-pull via the current backend rule. Click Save to persist.

Product Settings sync behavior

Without auto-pull, you rely on manual Pull products from the Products page.

Per field, Create and Update can copy from Origin (usually Shopify), Connector, TikTok Shop, or Don’t Sync. Fields include product name, price, media, barcode, stock, status, video, brand, and description.

Actions: Restore to global configuration and Save sync rules. After saving, run a controlled Sync on one test SKU before bulk updates.

Product Settings field-level sync rules

Visible when settings auto-listing is enabled: Basic Automatic Listing (standard products) and Enhanced Automatic Listing (includes AI-recommended attributes). A compliance note (e.g. Prop 65) may appear when enhanced listing is on.

Product Type or Product Category (radio). Save is locked after products have synced (cannot change source).

TikTok Shop Category Mapping via Metafield

Section titled “TikTok Shop Category Mapping via Metafield”

Master toggle to map TTS category from Shopify metafields. Add metafield key rows, drag to reorder, then Save. Turning the master toggle OFF saves immediately.

GPA connections may also show market-specific GPA Price Rules.

Default package dimensions are required for listing: Weight with Package (lb, oz, g, kg) plus Width / Height / Length (inch for lb/oz, cm for g/kg).

Setup Guide may redirect you here if dimensions are missing. TikTok requires weight and dimensions for shipping quotes; missing defaults cause listing or sync failures that can also block order sync for those SKUs.

Product Settings shipping defaults

Enter a numeric low inventory threshold. When stock falls at or below it, either Deactivate the product on TikTok Shop or Set the product “out-of-stock” on TikTok Shop. Save / Reset.

Inventory source: Sync inventory from all locations, or from a certain Shopify location. Bundle products may show a warning.

Product Settings inventory rules

Automatically sync promotions is the master toggle. Sub-types when ON: Amount off products, Free Shipping, Amount off orders, Buy X Get Y (Coming Soon). Click Save.

When the Product setup spotlight is active, a bottom bar offers Save & continue to Order settings / Skip for now.

Product Settings discount syncing

  • Loading product settings… — wait for connection config to load.
  • Sync rules won’t save — ensure rules loaded from the server first.
  • Category source Save disabled — products already synced; contact support if you must change source.
  • Invalid low inventory value — fix the number per the toast.
