# How the Auto Assign Feature Works


### How Auto Assign Detects Images

Rubik analyzes multiple data points to understand which image belongs to which variant. The system uses:

* **Product name**
* **Variant name or value** (for example: Red, Mint Green, Large)
* **Image filename**
* **Image alt text**

Rubik compares these fields and assigns images to variants based on keyword matches and visual relevance.

### How to Use Auto Assign

1. Open your product inside **Rubik Variant Images & Swatch**.
2. Go to the **Assign Images** screen.
3. Click the **Auto Assign** button in the top right corner.
4. Rubik will automatically pair your images with the correct variant options.
5. Review the assignments and adjust manually if needed.

The **Auto Assign** feature in Rubik Variant Images & Swatch automatically matches product images to the correct variant options using smart detection. This helps you configure variant galleries in seconds instead of doing everything manually.

### When Auto Assign Works Best

* Your variants use clear names such as "Black", "White", "Green".
* Your image filenames include color or variant terms.
* You added descriptive alt text to your Shopify images.
* Each variant has visually distinct images.


||| If an image is not assigned, you can always assign images manually by clicking Assign Images for each variant or run Reset and try Auto Assign again.
