Updating a Serialized Product Metafield

This flow is an easy workaround if you want to bulk update the metafield value to 'true' for serialized products. This flow automatically sets a metafield to "true" for products tagged as "serial" when their inventory changes, helping identify serialized items with less manual effort.

The Flow:

  • Tag all products that need to be marked as serialized with the word "serial."

  • In Shopify Flow, implement the flow above. This flow triggers when inventory changes for those tagged products and sets their metafield value to true.

  • Manually update the inventory (for example, increase by 1) to trigger the flow.

  • After the metafields are updated, turn off the flow.

  • Reset the inventory back to its original amount if needed.

  • Remove the "serial" tag from the products to finish.
