Tag order based on the Product Variant Name

What is the product variant name?

The product variant name is a concatenation of both an item's Product and Variant Titles. These are separated by a space on either side of a hyphen to form the product variant name value.

For example, if an item with the Product Title: Jumper had been purchased and the variant of the jumper selected was: Size: Medium / Colour: Green

...then the product variant name would be: Jumper - Medium / Green

If you're looking to tag your orders based on the product variant name of any of the products purchased within the order, then this is the criteria to use.
