Step 2. Create the configurable product
Create a configurable product tutorial
We have the information we need to create the Champ Tee configurable product.
The sample payload does not contain the price or the size. These attributes will be defined in the simple products.
The visibility attribute is set to 4, meaning the product can be found by browsing or searching. This value will be changed for the simple products.
The below table shows the equivalent code for the visibility attribute
| Visibility | Code |
|---|---|
Not Visible Individually |
1 |
Catalog |
2 |
Search |
3 |
Catalog, Search |
4 |
Before you using this code sample, verify that the attribute values are the same in your installation. See Get the list of attributes defined in an attribute searchCriteria for more information.
