ProductVariantsBulkInput Images Questions

[weap0n7]

I want to add an image for each variable.
I added an image URL to imageSrc, but I can't actually add an image. What should I do?

mutation productVariantsBulkCreate($productId: ID!, $variants: [ProductVariantsBulkInput!]!) {
  productVariantsBulkCreate(productId: $productId, variants: $variants) {
    product {
      id      
    }
    productVariants {        
      id
      image{
          url
      }            
      metafields(first: 250) {
        edges {
          node {
            namespace
            key
            value
          }
        }
      }
    }
    userErrors {
      field
      message
    }
  }
}

  "productId": "gid://shopify/Product/8730477592876",  
  "variants": [
    {        
      "options": [

Hi Weap0n7,

I've digged into this and it looks like from our GraphQL API documentation, the imageSrc field is deprecated as of the 2023-07 release. This field can no longer be used to associate an image with a product variant through mutations. Instead, you should use the mediaSrc field. Can you try again using mediaSrc?

Hope this helps!

Hi.
I applied it as you said, but the image is not applied. I don't know why.

Hi @Liam ,

I can confirm with @weap0n7 . We are seeing the same thing. It doesn't matter if we use mediaSrc: "https://xxxx" or mediaSrc: ["https://xxxx"]. It also doesn't work with `productVariantsBulkCreate`

With productVariantsBulkCreate, you need

1. Add all images in media input first

2. In each variant payload input, add the image in the above list.

It will work.

For productVariantsBulkUpdate:

Hope you can find the new way out.

For me, I got all the media from product for getting the media Id, and then add the corresponding mediaId for each variant image. 

The variant image will be updated smoothly.
