I think the problem is that you just get the product from the lineItem.Sku not the variant.

Try using lineItem.VariantSku to get the variant. If that fails maybe the lineItem isn't a variant at all. You can check that with "product.IsVariant".

I tried:

var product = @CatalogLibrary.GetProduct(lineItem.VariantSKU);

Which gives me 'The product with SKU does not exist'

The SKU returned is 001 which is the correct SKU for my variant

The full SKU IS 'PR001 - 001' SO I tried:

var product = @CatalogLibrary.GetProduct(lineItem.Sku + " - " + lineItem.VariantSKU);

However also results in 'The product with SKU does not exist'

Hi Marc,

You can only load the full product with every variant like so:

var product = @CatalogLibrary.GetProduct(lineItem.Sku);
var variant = product.Variants.Single(x => x.VariantSku == lineItem.VariantSku); 

Hope this helps.

Hi Soren,

I am trying to get at the variant description so that website users can see what they have added to the cart. I have trie your above code however variant doesnt have longdecription as an option. The screen grab below shows the text that I am trying to display in the cart.

Cheers,

Marc

The product/variant itself hasn't the LongDescription.

The Descriptions are in the ProductDescriptions property of the product. So you have to get the description and than the long description.

ProductDescription pd = variant.GetDescription(culture.ToString()); and than pd.LongDescription where culture is the current culture.

is working on a reply...
