Shopify has announced the removal of the discount allocation_method value one, starting with version 2020-07.
If you have a Shopify import configured for the API Discounts: Price Rule – such as Create a price rule, Update a price rule, or Create or Update a price rule – follow the steps below to ensure that you’re not using any deprecated values for the allocation_method field. If so, switch to the alternative value suggested by Shopify.
- Open your Shopify flow, and locate the import to the API Discounts: Price Rule.
- Click the Import mapping (
) button to view the field mappings. - Check the value configured for price_rule.allocation_method.
) button to view the - If it is set to each or across, then no further action is needed. You are all set!
Otherwise, change the mapping depending on the type:
allocation_method hardcoded, set to one
If it is a hardcoded value set to one, change the value from one to across.
allocation_method mapped to source
If allocation_method is a mapped field, then you can either change the value of the field coming from the source application or you can add a static lookup to change the incoming value from one to across, as described below. To change the mapping method, click the Options (
) button next to the field mapping.
allocation_method set by a static lookup
In the Edit mapping panel, set the Field mapping type to Lookup and the Options to Static: Value to value. Set the fields as shown below, most importantly updating the Import field value from one to across:
allocation_method set by a dynamic lookup
If allocation_method is a Dynamic search lookup, make sure to check the response data. If you’re fetching the Shopify field allocation_method directly from the response, then you’re safe since Shopify now returns across (in the place of one).
