# How to exclude products from your Shopify integration

## We know you might not want all of your products to be on Creoate. Here is how to exclude some of your products from your Creoate store

**This MUST be done in Shopify. When we sync products from Shopify into Creoate - we need your store to tell us what to import and what to exclude.**

The way to do this is by creating a product metafield called 'Exclude from Creoate'. 

Heres how:

1\. Login to your shopify store  - https://admin.shopify.com/store

2\. Navigate to your admin portal and click on 'metafields and metaobjects

3\. Click on the Product Metafield definitions

4\. Hit 'Add definiton' which will allow you to create a new metafield

5\. Create a metafield with this data and settings:

**Name**: Exclude from Creoate

**Description**: *Optional* Any product with this metafield will not be created/updated on Creoate

**Type:** True or False 

**Toggles:** Tick all options at the bottom

**Category assignments:** *Optional -*  If you want to bulk mark a category of products to exclude them from Creoate. You can skip this and save if you want to do this at a product by product level.

6\. Navigate to any product and scroll down.
