Step 5: Default Category Template

Once you have connected the app with the TikTok seller account, you need to map your product category listed on Shopify with TikTok Shop. By doing so, you will enhance the visibility of your product catalog for buyers across your TikTok Shop. Follow the below-mentioned steps to configure the profile and map product attributes:

1. Choose the desired TikTok Shop product category from the dropdown menu as shown in the image below:

2. Once the product category is selected, map the required and recommended attributes in the Product Attributes section. 

Note: When mapping TikTok Shop attributes to Shopify, please note that only the ‘weight’ attribute is supported by Shopify. Therefore, if you have other dimension attributes like ‘height,’ ‘width,’ or ‘length,’ you will need to enter them manually.

3. Now map product variant attribute, i.e., specification & color.

(Note: Selecting/creating at least 1 product variant is mandatory to list products on TikTok Shop. The product variant attribute varies from category  to category.)

Step 6: Default Configurations

Once the profile data is saved successfully, proceed with the default configuration. The default configuration helps you set syncing options, customize prizes for a particular profile, and assist you with error-free listing on TikTok Shop.

• • Product Custom Pricing: You can set custom pricing with this option. Choose from fixed or percentage increment/decrement and set increment or decrement price.
  • Product Auto Delete: Any product deleted in the Shopify store will also be reflected in the TikTok Shop.

  (Note: Individual variants won’t be removed.)

  4. After selecting your option, save & proceed.

  Once the onboarding process is complete, you will be redirected to the dashboard. All the Shopify products will be imported into the app and you can find them under the “Products” section.
