The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.People where confused about the fact that there is no useful information around the SKU that is auto generated. Especially for site builders its important to know what the SKU might look like. It would be ideal if we can provide the actual SKU, if not I would love if we could at least provide the token that is used.

Comment #1
guguss commentedI'm not sure if it's autoSKU or Inline Entity Form module related. The issue needs to be created to the correct queue and a patch should be applied.
The correct pattern should ideally be : "Will be auto-generated as follow [TOKEN]."
Comment #2
bojanz commentedThe token used is the node title.
That's why it is generated on main form save, when you save just the product form the node title might not be entered yet.
So, the message would look like:
"Will be auto-generated from: [node:title]"
Is that fine, Bojhan?
Comment #3
Bojhan commentedI thought its based on variation information? [node:title] is a little ambiguous, gives as little information as we do now.
Comment #4
bojanz commentedNo, sorry, I was wrong, it's based on PRODUCT title. But the product title is node title + all product attributes.
That's why it's only a single token, to avoid duplicating the attributes.
