Questions, answered
Will it change prices in Shopify without my approval?
Never. The run always pauses after posting the diff and waits for your explicit go-ahead. No price is touched until you approve.
What if a SKU in the sheet doesn't exist in Shopify?
It flags that row as an error in the Slack diff and skips it, so the rest of the valid updates still go through cleanly.
Can I bulk-approve all changes at once?
Yes - reply 'APPROVE ALL' in the thread and WebRun will apply every change in the diff. Or you can approve specific SKUs to update them selectively.
