Product Inventory Management

This project integrates Google Sheets with Shopify to manage product inventory, photos, and metadata. It uses Google Apps Script to synchronize data between a "master" Google Sheet and your Shopify store.

Overview

The system allows you to:

• Manage product details (SKUs, titles, descriptions) in a Google Sheet.
• Automatically upload product photos from Google Drive to Shopify.
• specific triggers (onEdit, onOpen) to sync changes to Shopify in real-time or on-demand.
• Handle rate limiting and concurrency using a custom queue system.

Prerequisites

• Node.js: managed via fnm (Fast Node Manager)
• Google Clasp: for pushing code to Apps Script
• Google Cloud Project: tied to the Apps Script container

Quick Start

1. Install Dependencies

   npm install
   

2. Build Project

   npm run build
   

3. Deploy to Apps Script
