Is there any app to view line items on shopify admin?

Topic summary

Seeking a way to view order line items (two text and one image) directly in Shopify admin and live-edit order tags without exporting. The request explicitly asks for alternatives to Matrixify and a non-CSV workflow.

Latest response offers Matrixify as a solution via export/import, not in-app viewing. It suggests exporting order line item data to a spreadsheet (CSV or Excel) to bulk manage tags, then re-importing.

To update tags via Matrixify, the minimum columns are:

  • ID or Name: identifies the Order.
  • Command: set to UPDATE.
  • Tags: comma-separated list of tags.
  • Tags Command: MERGE to add tags, or REPLACE to overwrite existing tags.

A tutorial is provided (focused on Product tags but applicable to Orders) and support contact is offered. No method was given to view line items or edit tags live within Shopify admin.

Outcome: No confirmed app for direct line-item viewing/editing in the admin. The thread remains open with an export-based workaround only.

Hello @Su_Ka

We noticed that you mentioned our app in your post so wanted to see if we could provide a solution for your needs within our app as sounds like you might already be familiar with it.

With Matrixify you can export your Order line item data to a spreadsheet file, not only CSV but also Excel XLSX file which is a lot more user-friendly to work with for bulk data management and updating data such as Tags.
You definitely can then use this exported file to manage Tags set for your Orders. You can edit the exported file to have the following minimum columns to update order Tags:

  • ‘ID’ or ‘Name’ to identify the Order
  • ‘Command’ set to value ‘UPDATE’
  • ‘Tags’ is a comma-separated list of tags for your Order
  • ‘Tags Command’ with value ‘MERGE’ if you just want to add new tags so you do not need to list all existing tags, or value ‘REPLACE’ to replace the tags that the order currently has with ones in your import file.

Here we also have a great tutorial on How to Add, Update or Delete Shopify Product Tags in Bulk. The tutorial is Prdocuts but the same general logic applies to all sheets/entities that have tags, such as Orders.
