I have managed to create a bundled product via the Graphql API using productBundleCreate, this seems to work and I can view the bundle on my test store, add it to cart etc. I was expecting this bundle to also show up via the Bundle App but it doesn't. Anyhow it shows up fine in the Shopify Admin products list but weirdly doesn't show the contents of the bundle. See screenshots below from the Shopify Admin, the first example I created manually via the Bundle App and the second example is created via the API (Netsuite Integration is the name of my App).

 

Anyone had experience of this?

Is there a way to make these bundles show the contents?

My testing so far shows this works but should I be cautious?

 

All feedback and suggestions much appreciated!

 

Tim

I also discovered that creating a bundle via the API allows you to add the same product twice with different options selected. So for example if you want to offer a bundle that includes a t-shirt in both blue and black where these are variants of the product this is not possible via the Bundle App but via the API it is.
