Cannot submit more than 3 product options via api

[300Essentials]

Hello,

We have many products and we'd like to add their attributes and options in shopify, however via api there are only 3 fields of options provided, any solution for this please?

ps: We use the REST API.

Thank you.

I believe the API only supports a max of 3 product options, at least it did when I was working on it a few years ago.

To work around this you will need to use variants and other ways of storing the data like metafields.

When considering this, also be aware that 1 product can have a maximum of 100 variants. In my case this lead me having to split one product with a lot of configuration options across multiple products.
