Activating content for your online store from SAM
You can control what Artists, Artworks, Editions and Products information show on your online store by using the Share to public toggles on an artist’s profile and using the Online Store toggles on an inventory item.
Show Artists on your online store
Profile data is now able to be sent to your website regardless of whether artists have items on the store. New controls in SAM interface allow art centres to control this via on Share to public toggles. This means you are able to set up artist profiles on your website using SAM data. Art centres can use Share to public toggles to determine how much information they wish to share from these pages, so Full artist biography pages can now be generated directly from SAM.

Inventory - Activating for your online store from SAM artworks, editions, products
You are able to control what is sent to your online store from within SAM. Use the online store toggles to turn things on and off. You can activate online store within an item one at a time, or use bulk actions> bulk edit> online store to toggle items on or off on multiple items at once
Changes in how inventory Status works in new SAM (Sold, available, out of stock)
- Inventory items are sent to API if online toggle is on regardless of status. This means things will be visible on the website even if they are sold in SAM, but their status will be sold and wont be able to be sold.
- This new feature allows AC to showcase work that may have been sold by an artist as a folio. Or to keep a product there until new stock comes back in.
Take things off your store by turning off the online store toggle once sold.
Tip: Use your Advanced search filter and bulk actions to manage this by searching Online > Status . Or ask your web developer to hide things once their status is sold from your web store.
Ensure your products have stock, use purchasing to add stock to products
