Create Xero Items from Shopify Products

This trigger watches for new product creation events in your Shopify store and captures all the product data needed for Xero sync. The step runs automatically whenever a product is added to your store, collecting details like product title, description, and all variant information. No configuration is required since it uses your existing Shopify connection. The captured product data gets passed to the loop step for processing each variant individually.

The loop step takes the product variants from Shopify and creates individual processing cycles for each one. Each variant gets processed with its own SKU, price, and inventory quantity to create separate Xero items. This step runs automatically using the variant data from the product trigger. The loop ensures that a shirt with Small, Medium, and Large sizes becomes three distinct items in Xero rather than one grouped product.

This action creates individual Xero items for each product variant processed in the loop. The step maps Shopify variant SKUs to Xero item codes, product titles to item names, and strips HTML from product descriptions for clean Xero records. It also syncs current inventory quantities and sets unit prices from your Shopify variant pricing. Each Xero item gets created with the exact details needed for accurate inventory tracking and sales reporting.
