How do I add product attributes and/or variations?
Attributes can be used on single products to set the attributes to a product such as colour, size or a custom attribute. If you need help setting this up jump to the Creating Attributes section below. This article will mostly focus on adding attributes to variable products.
Variable products are a product type that lets you offer a set of variations on a product with control over prices, stock, image, and more for each variation. They can be used for a product like a T-Shirt which you can offer in different colours and sizes.

Go to Seller Dashboard → Product → Add New product
In this stage, select which type of product you are willing to create. Here, we are creating a variable product. So, select Variable from the Product Type drop-down menu. Now, provide product category and tags so that your customer can easily find your product from your store.
