Parent ASIN

Understanding Parent ASIN in Viral Vue

A Parent ASIN is Amazon’s way of grouping all variations of a product under a single identifier. In Viral Vue, this helps you quickly manage and tag products. Knowing a product’s Parent ASIN ensures your videos can reach all available variations, maximizing exposure and engagement.

What Is a Parent ASIN?

Each product on Amazon has an ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number). A Parent ASIN is the main identifier for products with multiple variations called child ASINs, such as different sizes, colors, or styles.

How to Use Parent ASIN in Viral Vue

1. Toggle On Parent ASIN

By default, the Parent ASIN is not displayed in the overlay. To view it:

  • Open the Viral Vue extension overlay on an Amazon product page.

  • Click the 2 columns icon to customize displayed data points.

  • Switch Parent ASIN on so it appears in your overlay view.

2. Copy Parent ASIN

  • Single Copy: Click the Parent ASIN Copy icon to copy just the Parent ASIN.

  • Double Copy: Use the second copy icon to copy both the Child ASIN and Parent ASIN simultaneously for faster tagging or pasting.

3. Tagging with Parent ASIN

  • Use the copied Parent ASIN in the Parent ASIN Tagger tool to quickly tag multiple variations.

  • For more details on using the Parent ASIN through the tagging tool, see: Parent ASIN Tagger

Understanding and using Parent ASIN smartly helps your content stay visible, giving you an edge as an Amazon influencer.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Does a Parent ASIN ever change?
