Determining Custom Options in Magento 2 Products
In Magento 2, you can check whether a product has custom options using the hasOptions() method. Custom options allow additional product variations without using complex product types like Configurable or Bundle. Simple, Virtual, Grouped, and Downloadable products typically do not support options, while Bundle and Configurable products do.

Determining Custom Options in Magento 2 Products
To identify if a product in Magento 2 has custom options, you can utilize the hasOptions()
method on the product object. This method returns a boolean indicating the presence of custom options.
Implementation Steps:
Inject Dependencies:
- ProductRepositoryInterface: Allows retrieval of product information.
- LoggerInterface: Facilitates logging of errors.
Create a Method to Check for Custom Options:
- Use the
hasOptions()
method to determine if the product has custom options.
- Retrieve the product using its SKU.
Sample Code:
namespace Vendor\Module\Model;
use Magento\Catalog\Api\ProductRepositoryInterface;
use Psr\Log\LoggerInterface;
use Magento\Framework\Exception\NoSuchEntityException;
class ProductOptionsChecker
{
private $productRepository;
private $logger;
public function __construct(
ProductRepositoryInterface $productRepository,
LoggerInterface $logger
) {
$this->productRepository = $productRepository;
$this->logger = $logger;
}
public function hasCustomOptions($sku)
{
try {
$product = $this->productRepository->get($sku);
return $product->hasOptions();
} catch (NoSuchEntityException $e) {
$this->logger->error("Product with SKU {$sku} not found.");
return false;
}
}
}
Usage:
$checker = new \Vendor\Module\Model\ProductOptionsChecker($productRepository, $logger);
$sku = 'your-product-sku';
if ($checker->hasCustomOptions($sku)) {
echo "Product has custom options.";
} else {
echo "Product does not have custom options.";
}
Product Types and Custom Options:
Product Type | Supports Custom Options |
---|---|
Simple | Yes |
Configurable | No |
Bundle | No |
Virtual | Yes |
Grouped | No |
Downloadable | Yes |
Gift Card | Yes |
Note: While configurable and bundle products do not support custom options themselves, their associated simple products can have custom options.
Alternative Method:
if ($product->getTypeInstance()->hasOptions($product)) {
// Product has custom options
}
This method checks the product's type instance to determine the presence of options.
