The 'NetSuite Item to Shopify Product Add' data flow exports items in NetSuite as Products in Shopify every 15 mins. The connector exports basic Product Info (Description, Title, Product Type, Price) and other attributes.
The connector supports the following Item Types: Inventory (Matrix & Non-Matrix), Assembly (Matrix & Non-Matrix), Kit Items, Matrix Item (Parent and Child Items)
The connector exports Parent Matrix Item as Shopify Product and links all the child items of the NetSuite Matrix Parent as variations to the Shopify Product. Matrix item data includes product options, in addition to standard item data. Kit items in NetSuite are exported as Simple Items in Shopify.
Items created in NetSuite are exported to Shopify in batch flows and can be configured to transfer data in scheduled intervals. The settings are configured in the integrator.io dashboard.

Hi Diana,
Might want to add in that you need to tick 'Show in Webstore' on the item so it will appear in Shopify. They wont import even if they appear in the saved search that the flow will use.
It'd be very helpful to have an article/section in relation to using saved searches to export existing netsuite products in to shopify.
