Combined listings & Instagram Shopping

I’ve been testing combined listings API with Shopify Plus store that uses Instagram sales channel & Instagram Shop. I created the following combined listing with Color option and two products.

{
  "data": {
    "products": {
      "edges": [
        {
          "node": {
            "id": "gid://shopify/Product/XXX1",
            "title": "Testing Anna Shirt Dress",
            "status": "ACTIVE",
            "combinedListingRole": "PARENT",
            "combinedListing": {
              "combinedListingChildren": {
                "nodes": [
                  {
                    "parentVariant": {
                      "selectedOptions": [
                        {
                          "name": "Color",
                          "value": "Anchor",
                          "optionValue": {
                            "linkedMetafieldValue": null
                          }
                        }
                      ]
                    },
                    "product": {
                      "id": "gid://shopify/Product/XXX2",
                      "title": "Testing Anna Shirt Dress in Anchor",
                      "status": "ACTIVE",
                      "combinedListingRole": "CHILD"
                    }
                  },
                  {
                    "parentVariant": {
                      "selectedOptions": [
                        {
                          "name": "Color",
                          "value": "Stone",
                          "optionValue": {
                            "linkedMetafieldValue": null
                          }
                        }
                      ]
                    },
                    "product": {
                      "id": "gid://shopify/Product/XXX3",
                      "title": "Testing Anna Shirt Dress in Stone",
                      "status": "ACTIVE",
                      "combinedListingRole": "CHILD"
                    }
                  }
                ]
              }
            }
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Once these products were synced with Instgram, products in Instagram Shop had no Color option. Aparently the Color option seems to be synced with Instagram only for variants.

Can anyone confirm that combined listings are not supported by Instagram sales channel yet? Or my configuration of combined listings is the problem?

In Facebook documentation I found information about variants and item_group_id. It seems like it should be possible to integrate combined listings with Facebook and provide separate link (combined listing child) for each variant:

Hey @Liam-Shopify! One more question about combined listings. I couldn’t find any information on how combined listings are working with key sales channels anywhere. And I have Shopify Plus customers who are asking about it.

Hey @Kirill_Platonov - which key sales channels would you be referring to? I’m looking into the Instagram question now too :slight_smile:

Google Shopping & Instagram. Both of them supporting item_group_id field for grouping separate products of different colors, so I suppose they should be compatible with combined listings.
