The Product Catalog is a list of all the products in your store. From the Product Catalog, you can add new products and view or edit existing products. The Product Catalog uses connected data to connect to the Product page. This means when you add a new product, a new dynamic product page is created and the widgets on the page are connected to fields within the Product Catalog. When you update a product in the Product Catalog, the changes automatically appear on the corresponding product page.
Note
Each native store plan offers a different product and variant limit. For detailed information, see Maisey Store Plans.
