Products - Rutter API Reference - the Common Language for Business Data

The Product object

A Rutter Product represents a product contained in a merchant's catalog. Every product contains variants, which represent the different types or options of products sold (e.g. size, color, model). The product object contains high level information about the item including name, images, and tags, whereas the variant object contains physical information about the item, including price and weight.

In the case where a product in a merchant's catalog contains no variants, a default variant will exist containing information about the product.
