CLI

Tasks

Click the image to make it bigger

This is what you should see (or similar) when opening your tasks file. Let's get started on each field you will need to successfully run an AboutYou release!

STORE

To run AboutYou tasks, input AY or ABOUTYOU in the "STORE" field. The region will be determined by the country code in the "COUNTRY" field.

MODE

GaneshBot offers different modes to use while running for AboutYou, which are different ways of how the bot handles the checkout. We currently support:

• STANDARD: input STANDARD in the "MODE" field, or leave it blank.
• PRELOAD: input PRELOAD in the "MODE" field.
• ACCOUNT: both STANDARD and PRELOAD modes can be used with accounts by adding +ACCOUNT after it.
  • This feature will use accounts from CSV. If you don't use it, Ganesh will generate accounts if a catchall is provided in the "EMAIL" field.

PRODUCT

In the "PRODUCT" field, you need to enter the product MASTER PID.

It will be posted in #eu-release-guides before any major drop IF WE HAVE IT. Feel free to ask in your cookgroup as well. Example: 8325859

You can run multiple products in one task by adding a + between each product MASTER PID. Example: 8325859+8325837+3225859. When doing this, the size MUST BE set to ANY, meaning the sneakers you checkout will be in random size. As soon as some PID from the list comes in-stock, it will try to cart & checkout.

SIZE

• Sizing depends on region
• Size ranges can be used (example: 37-40)
• If you want any size, input ANY or RANDOM
• You can also input MULTICART to cart ALL available variants - you can use this with multi PID and custom quantity.
