Collection sync

This guide explains how to enable Collection Sync so your Destination store(s) can receive collections from your Source store.

✅ What Collection Sync does

Note: this setting syncs the collection, not the products in the collection

• create collections that don’t exist in the Destination store

• update collections to match the Source store

---

⚙️ Enable collection sync in app Settings

1. Open the app in Source store > click Settings

2. Scroll down to Share Collections part > tick on checkbox Enable

3. Select collections you want to sync

• All collections: all products of all collections in your store will be synced with Destination store

• Specific collections: only products of selected collection(s) will be synced with Destination store

4. Click Save

⚙️ Create connection in Destination store

✅ How the sync works?

Collection Sync follows the same logic as product sync:

1. The app checks collections in the Source store

2. It syncs those collections to the Destination store(s)

3. It includes products in the collection only if those products are synced/matched (based on your connection settings)

Matching & Imports

This setting controls how collections are synced between the Source Store and the Destination Store.

Option	Create New Collections	Update Existing Collections
Create & Update	✅	✅
Update Only	❌	✅
Create Only	✅ (new collections only)	❌

Option 1: Create & Update

The app will:

• Create collections on the Destination store if they don’t already exist.

• Automatically update existing collections that share the same handle (URL path) as the Source.

Example

• Source collection: Summer 2024 Handle: /collections/summer-2024

• The app will:

  • Create the Summer 2024 collection on the Destination store.

  • Keep syncing changes (e.g., title, description, products inside) from Source to Destination automatically.

Note: Any future updates you make to the "Summer 2024" collection in the Source store will also appear in the Destination store.

Option 2: Update Only

The app will:

• Not create new collections.

• Only update collections in the Destination store that already share the same handle with the Source.

Example

• Source collection: /collections/summer-2024

• Destination also has /collections/summer-2024 → Updates will sync.

• Source has /collections/spring-2025, but Destination does not → No collection will be created or synced.

Option 3: Create Only

The app will:

• Only create and sync new collections that are added to the Source after the store connection was established.

• Existing collections in the destination store store will not be synced.

Example

Collection	Exists in Destination Store	Sync Result
Summer Collection	Yes	Ignored
