Important notes

  • Shopify collections are created unpublished by default.
  • Scheduled publish uses Shopify publishDate.
  • Scheduled unpublish is handled by a second n8n workflow using the helper payload output.
  • Metafield values can be written directly. For production shops, create definitions first or use the provided operation to create them.

Example metafields JSON

{
  "custom.heading": {
    "type": "single_line_text_field",
    "value": "Black Friday"
  },
  "custom.collection_layout": {
    "type": "single_line_text_field",
    "value": "campaign"
  },
  "custom.campaign_start": {
    "type": "date_time",
    "value": "2026-11-20T18:00:00+01:00"
  },
  "custom.campaign_end": {
    "type": "date_time",
    "value": "2026-11-30T23:59:00+01:00"
  }
}

Disclaimer

This package is installation-ready and structured for n8n community-node loading, but you should test it against your own Shopify store before publishing to production.
