# How to Create a Variant Group in Merchant Center

Variant groups allow you to group products with different options (e.g., material, color). Follow these steps to create and manage a variant group:

### Steps to Create a Variant Group

1. **Go to the Product:**
   
     - Open the product you want to create a variant group for.
     - Click on the **Variants** tab and select **Create Variant Group**.
2. **Choose Dimensions:**
   
     - Select the dimensions you desire (e.g., size, material) for the group from the dropdown and click **Add**.
     - ***Note:** Add all desired dimensions at this step. Adding dimensions to an existing group is not possible—you would need to remove the products and create a new group.*
3. **Add Products and Values:**
   
     - Click **Create** to set up the group. The current product will be added automatically.
     - Add additional products by searching for their name or ID in the **Add Product** field.
     - Assign values for the selected dimensions to each product.
4. **Save the Group:**
   
     - Click **Save** to finalize the group.

### Group Settings

Under **Group Settings**, you’ll find options for **Group Key** and **Collapsed State**.

- **Group Key:**
  
    - A unique identifier for the group (e.g., text or numbers). Products with the same key will belong to the same variant group.
    - A product can only belong to one group. Adding a different key via import will remove the product from its current group.
- **Collapsed State:**
  
    - If enabled, only the **Main Product** will appear in product lists and search results. Other products in the group will not be displayed.
