Product Attributes describe products and its features. Product name, price, description, and weight are a few examples of product attributes. Product attributes help potential customers to choose the best-fit product for their needs.

As a developer or store manager, you often need to get product attributes and their values to perform certain operations. It’s practically impossible to do so manually (copying values) especially if you have thousands of products in your store. The efficient way is to automate this by writing code.

Getting product attribute value in Magento 2 is pretty simple. The following code snippet loads the product by SKU and displays the name. You can use the code to get any product attribute value you want.

$product = $this->_productRepository->get(‘sku’);
$attributes = $product->getAttributes();
foreach($attributes as $a)
{
    echo $a->getName();
}

The product repository enables you to get products by SKU or ID. Use the following command to get products in Magento 2 by ID:

$this->_productRepository->getById(‘id’)

Make sure, you clear the product repository cache, else you might get wrong data.

$this->_productRepository->cleanCache();

Hope it helps.
