Bulk Edit Issue with Adding Products to Available Channels

Dear Team,

I am experiencing difficulties while using the bulk edit feature to add products to available channels in my Shopify store. I will describe the issue I am facing in more detail below:

I have tried adding products to my store by following these steps:

  1. Upload the products to the backend.
  2. Select the products I want to activate.
  3. Click on "Add available channels."

When I follow these steps, it appears that the products have been correctly added to the sales channels. However, when checking their availability, I encounter 404 errors on the product links, and the products do not appear in the "collections/all" section, as the product links yield the 404 error.

Subsequently, I removed these products and re-uploaded them. This time, I decided to individually add them to the sales channels instead of using the bulk edit feature. By doing so, the products became available correctly.

This issue suggests that there is an error in the "Add available channels" bulk edit tool (I am not aware of other issues with other bulk edit tools). Since I regularly use this feature in my business, it is crucial to resolve this inconvenience as soon as possible, as manually editing the products one by one each day is unfeasible.

I would greatly appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and eagerly await your response with an effective solution.

Sincerely, Sergio.

No, it's a vintage shop, so we upload new items everyday due to we only have 1 in stock of each piece

Hi Sergio,

We are also having the same issue. Seems to be a Shopify glitch.

Our workaround was to go into the product and click manage channels, add all, save.

Have to do it one by one...

Another workaround is click bulk edit > add appropriate columns > select whole column and tick the box.  If you click the '...' and then add available channels it won't work.
