What is this useful for?

Import and export functionality in Composable Commerce uses the key field as the identifier for resources. If your resources do not have a key, they cannot be updated via import and their references may be broken in exported files.

As the key value is optional, resources within your Composable Commerce Project may lack them.

This app sets boilerplate key values to resources, which enables you to fully use the import and export functions within Composable Commerce.

Note

The boilerplate key values use the format: {resourceType}_{resourceId}.

For example: category_512a4466-6876-4c41-add8-1406c6c68da3
