Does the Bundler App add metadata to indicate bundle purchases?

Shopify Apps

Topic summary

Main point: Determining whether order line items came from a bundle. The answer identifies where this metadata exists.

Key details:

  • The bundle linkage is stored in the lineItemGroup property on order.lineItem.
  • This information is accessible only via the GraphQL API.
  • It is not included in order webhooks.

Outcome/implications:

  • Apps needing to recognize bundled items should query Orders via GraphQL and inspect lineItem.lineItemGroup.
  • Webhook-based flows won’t receive this indicator directly and may require a follow-up GraphQL fetch.

Status: Resolved with a clear location and access method for the metadata; limitation noted for webhooks.

does the shopify bundler app put any kind of metadata on orders/line items to indicate the customer purchased a bundle? Our app needs to be able to recognize that line items in an order originated from a bundle.

So, the place that the information lives is in the lineItemGroup property of order.lineItem.

Some notes:

  • only available via graphql
  • not present in order webhooks (hooray)
