Admin - How do I use the Item Explorer?
The Item Explorer is used to view the raw data on the products in the site.
Select the Item Explorer manager
Using the Item Explorer
The Item Explorer provides a detailed layout of information that is available for the product being inquired, making it useful as a information debugging tool. When using the Item Explorer, either a keyword or specific item code may be used to search for item information.
The keyword search (displayed above) displays a 3 column layout to display information on 3 different products that match the search information. When searching for a specific item code, only that product's information will be displayed.
Using the Item Explorer while viewing a SKU
You can also utilize the Item Explorer while viewing a SKU or SKU detail page. An admin can select the "Show Item Explorer" option from the admin tool located at the top right of the page as seen in the screenshot below.
This tool will display all of the SKU properties in an easy-to-view format, along with a pop-out panel that gives a summary of all of those properties.
In the "SKU Properties" panel on the right side of the screen, you can toggle whether or not you see all of the SKU properties in question, or just the ones that are currently in use by selecting the button at the top right of the panel.
By hovering over the question marks in the side panel, you can quickly see where the SKU property is being generated from.
