      Creating Attribute Transformations for Channels and Brand Portals

      How to create attribute transformations in Plytix to customize attribute values in outputs

      While you can create formula attributes in Plytix to manage and view them alongside your other product data, there may be times when you only need to transform attribute values for specific channels—such as formatting data for distribution. In those cases, you can customize attribute transformations directly within your chosen Channels and Brand Portals (under "Attribute Transformation"), ensuring your data meets the exact requirements of each platform upon export. In this article, we will show you how to create attribute transformations in your Plytix outputs.

      ℹ️ This article covers how to create attribute transformations that apply only within a specific Channel or Brand Portal. If you want to manage these operations like other attributes, check out our article on creating Formula Attributes
