Items can have an InventoryType / ItemEquipLoc that indicate in what InventorySlotId they can be equipped.

• InventoryType (number) is returned from C_Item.GetItemInventoryType()
• ItemEquipLoc (string) is returned from GetItemInfo() and also functions as a GlobalString

Example

Prints the inventory type for  [Red Winter Hat], and the related ItemEquipLoc and globalstring.

local invType = C_Item.GetItemInventoryTypeByID(21524)
print(invType) -- 1

local equipLoc = select(9, GetItemInfo(21524))
print(equipLoc, _G[equipLoc]) -- "INVTYPE_HEAD", "Head"

Values

Note: The range is documented in Blizzard API Documentation as [0-28] but C_Transmog.GetSlotForInventoryType() and EJ_GetInvTypeSortOrder() are off-by-one and use [1-29] instead.
