Magento 2 - Load products invisible individually using GraphQL - magento

we have a Magento 2 installation and we are building a new frontend using GraphQL. We need to load some information for products that are not visibile individually. They are simple products part of a configurable products. We don't want to make them visible in listing or search but there are places where we have to load a specific variant and show some infos.
Is there a way to allow GraphQL queries to return those products ? we are trying to load them using SKU.
Magento version 2.3.4
Thanks

Managing multiple shops in one website through magento

I am creating a portal where I will be having All shops\stores with their products for online buying. User can search products which will then show multiple shops offering that particular product. I need to ask, is this supported in Magento?
Magento supports multiple stores with multiple languages for each store. Products and categories cand be added across stores but not mandatory on all stores. Magento can be configured (ex: themes, product default display type, etc) for each store / store view.

Can Magento be used as a CMS to build a product catalog(not a store currently but maybe in the future)

I have to build a website for a mobile store. They want to list their products but don't want to start selling yet. I have done a lot of website with Joomla and Virtuemart.
This time I want to use Magento as they use Lightspeed a POS that offers integration with Magento community edition.
My question is can I simply use Magento as a CMS to only display products and a few static pages like about us etc. I went through stackoverflow and found that some members have recommended some good blog integrations for magento so that part is solved(Thanks :-) ).
I know I can use wordpress as a blog with magento.
I rephrase....Can I use it to simply display products!
If Yes then please let me know if I am doing it for the right reason.
the reason are:
Adding products and product information becomes very easy in a
shopping cart(But in a CMS like Joomla each page has to be literally "designed" or I will have to use CCK editor. It still
becomes difficult for the client to update products IMO)
It comes with built in plugins to show related/featured products
etc. with a click on a button or options in the backend while client
simply puts the appropriate tags(With a CMS have to use a plugin or
module in Joomla that has to be set to show in the particular pages)
Automatic display of images etc is easier in Magento in comparison
to a CMS like Joomla where I will have to use a plugin or a gallery
that is set to show inside an article
The buy/add to cart button can easily be disabled and a "more info"
button can be added that will send an email to the client. They get
the exact product code the customer is asking for(Doing that in
Joomla would require a lot of extra stuff like adding codes or use
an advanced contact form with a tag to be entered for each page)
Last but not the least when client is ready to go online it can
easily be converted
Does Magento have two display? One is simply a catalog and the other a store. I have seen that in some stores online(not necessarily using magento) I am assuming either they created a website with the products pages first and then added a store later.
But in many cases it looks like a part of the Shopping application.(i just can't seem to remember which one they were using now).
If Magento allows that then I think my problem is solved. I simply use the "catalog option" and when the client is ready for the store I simply pull the products using a extension from their POS software.
Thank you for taking the time to read/answer.
Using Magento as a catalog only without selling the items is pretty straightforward. The easiest thing to do is just to use the catalog category lists to list the products and just make sure the "order" button is not visible.
You can do this simply by removing it from the product detail template (and the list/grid template in case they have it).
Or you could (I think) set all products to 'out of stock' this will automatically remove the 'order' button.
If you want to be thorough you should edit the cartControllers's addAction to disable adding products to the cart.
If you are going to combine Magento with Wordpress, Fishpig has developed a plugin with which you can use shortcode within Wordpress blogposts or/and pages to display products.
More info about that can be found here: http://fishpig.co.uk/wordpress-integration/docs/shortcodes.html
System > Configuration > Advanced > Advanced
Disable the modules you don't want to use.
For example, if you wanted to use Magento as catalog only then disable sales module.
Hope this works for you!

"Please specify the product's option(s)" in Magento.

In Magento, I am using bundled products and I have a configurable product as an associated product of the bundled product. This configurable product has 4 simple product as associated products of the configurable product.
The chain goes like:
- bundle product - configurrable product (associated with bundled product) - simple products (associated with configurable products)
Now, in the bundled product view page in the frontend, I'm getting this message:
Please specify product option(s)
although I have filled out all the required fields for all the products as required,
This validation error message occurs while adding the product to the cart.
Any advice? I've been stuck for day with this problem.
For others experiencing this message with a different product configuration...
The underlying error message can be easily reproduced via the standard Magento admin screens (any downloadable added to a group or bundle will cause it - regardless of the "link can be purchased separately" setting).
In the case of grouped or bundled downloadable products, this is a known bug (see http://www.magentocommerce.com/bug-tracking/issue?issue=10864). The bug report describes a suitable fix for these, and although it is supposed to have been patched in newer distributions, remains unresolved in Magento ver. 1.5.0.1.
To expand on Andrey's answer, if you want a configurable product in a bundle that includes required options, you'll need to modify the templates to output the product options during rendering. If there are price differences, you'll basically be rewriting the JS to support the dynamic pricing mechanism on the page.
Once the form is submitted, you'll need to modify the cart classes and controllers to support saving the product options as the items are placed in the cart. You'll also need to override pricing as before to support whatever custom pricing this entails. Make sure that the cart resource classes properly save the simple products underneath the configurable products underneath the bundle product.
I've probably missed several items. This is why it is currently not supported. :/
Thanks,
Joe
Magento does not support bundle products with selections of products that have some required options (configurables, downloadables with links, simple products with any required option and so on).
Your configuration is not valid for a system and not supported. In fact Magento does not show mentioned above products as a possible choice for bundle option selection. If you were able to make such a bundle using standard Magento admin panel - report a bug with detailed step-by-step case at http://www.magentocommerce.com
