0:12 In this

0:12 tutorial, we'll learn how to dig deeper into the mapping between

0:15 Tharstern and Infigo instead of mapping to an entire product variant.

0:20 As we saw in the previous tutorial, will instead begin

0:24 to map to a product attribute.

0:26 to map to a product attribute.

0:37 So the first thing we need to do is to navigate to our product

0:40 management screen that I'm on at the moment.

0:43 Navigate to your product of interest and click on the plus

0:46 icon to reveal the product variant information.

0:51 Attributes are found within the product variant.

0:54 So if we go to the edit icon on the right hand side

0:58 on the product variant table to access those settings

1:07 from here, we can click on the attributes list

1:10 to access a list of attributes on this particular product.

1:20 Now, in my particular case, I

1:21 want to link up the individual

1:25 attribute values that we have available.

1:28 So to do this, I first need to access the list

1:30 of attribute values for each of these attributes.

1:33 So for clothing size, for example, I can click on my edit values.

1:38 You'll see I get a list of my attribute values there,

1:42 and then I have access once again to our connect

1:45 link button.

1:49 If I click on one of those, it launches up

1:51 this familiar product link screen.

1:55 And this is a condensed version of the mapping screen,

1:59 which we saw when we were mapping a complete product variant.

2:02 So the product type can't be changed here as we are changing

2:07 values related to that particular product

2:12 process.

2:12 And part mapping can be specified on this screen.

2:16 If you want to know more information about utilizing those and what can

2:20 get advanced configuration options, please do see the previous tutorial
