What’s new in Shopify

Until now, the color, material, fit, and other attributes you set when you categorize a product stayed on the product page. To see which materials or colors actually sell, you had to export.

Those category metafields now show up in Analytics as dimensions and filters, next to your custom metafields. If you already categorized products, there's nothing to turn on. The attributes your products use are there.

What you can do
- Group a sales report by Color, Material, Fit, Fabric, Size, Activity, or any other category metafield on your products.
- Filter a report to a specific value, like organic cotton or a particular color.
- Use them in Reports, Explore, and the query editor.

What stays the same
- How you categorize products hasn't changed.
- Custom metafields still work the way they do today.
- If a product has more than one value for an attribute, Analytics keeps those values together on one row so sales aren't counted twice.
