Product Data Conversion – Age Ranges, Keywords, Fundamentals, etc.

Product data is pushed to your website within pre-defined fields. Most of these make perfect sense, for example Product Name is used to populate the Shopify product field called Product Title. Some data field do not have a default field within a cart system, so we push it to your site in converted data – for example, Ages Ranges are sent to a Shopify site as Product Tags. This page describes how we convert some specific fields when being pushed to e-com platforms. 

Here are some of the most common data conversions: 

Age Ranges

A product’s recommended age range is stored in the STN product database as annual incremented age ranges. For example,  a product recommended for “Ages 3+” is stored as these 4 annual ranges:
3-4 yrs, 4-5 yrs, 5-6 yrs, & 6-7 yrs.

When we push that to Shopify, it will show up in an item as these 4 Product Tags:
age 3-4 years
age 4-5 years
age 5-6 years
age 6-7 years
