# Quickstart: your first combined listing

This walkthrough creates the simplest kind of group — products that vary by one option, like Color — and publishes it to your storefront.

## Before you start

* Install the app and [turn on the app embed](/globo-combined-listings/getting-started/enable-the-app.md).
* Have at least two products that are variations of each other (e.g. *Summer Tee — Red* and *Summer Tee — Blue*).

## Create the group

{% step %}

### Start a new group

Go to **Groups → Create group** and choose **Group by single option**.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Pick the products to link

The product picker opens first. Search, then select each variation. Products already in another group appear disabled — a product can only belong to one group.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Name the option and its values

Set the option name (e.g. `Color`) and one value per product (e.g. `Red`, `Blue`). Each value gets a swatch: **First image**, **One color**, **Two colors**, or **Custom image**.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Check the live preview

The right-hand preview shows exactly how the widget will look, with **Product page** and **Product card** tabs. The default style works out of the box — if you'd like a different look, pick one of the ready-made styles (see [Styles](/globo-combined-listings/styles/styles.md)).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Publish

Click **Publish group**. The group is created with status **Active** and syncs to your storefront.

Storefront updates are processed in the background and cached by Shopify's CDN — allow a minute or two for changes to appear.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Preview on your storefront

Open one of the linked products on your store. The option widget appears on the product page and on collection cards.

## Next steps

* Have many products following a naming pattern? [Group by title pattern](/globo-combined-listings/product-groups/group-by-title-pattern.md) creates groups in bulk.
* Products varying by more than one option? See [Group types](/globo-combined-listings/product-groups/group-types.md).
* Want a different look? Pick a ready-made style from the [Style library](/globo-combined-listings/styles/style-library.md) — and [customize it](/globo-combined-listings/styles/customize-a-style.md) only if you need finer control.
