Redirects

A URL redirect sends shoppers from an old or broken link to a new page—great for SEO and for fixing 404 errors.
DataEase lets you:

  • Add hundreds of new redirects at once.
  • Update targets after a site redesign.
  • Delete old paths in bulk.

Shopify’s redirect guide.

Note: You can’t redirect Shopify fixed paths (like /products) or special prefixes (/apps, /cart, etc.). Path length max = 1024 characters.
