You lack knowledge.  To automate a Photoshop process you need to know how Photoshop works well and you need to learn how use Photoshop Automation. Actions and Scripting.   You have creative a complex mockup design can not be automatically populated using Photoshop Action for Actions can not use programming logic that is needed to do the complex processing required to process your merged mockups artboards.   If you search the web I do not think you will find any downloadible mocks up template that is designed with multiple Artboards and mockups designs forming a merged template.   Years ago a user posted a template that had 84 layer groups for 84 product templates and in the future more products would be added.  The layered template file was already over 1GB in size.   I broke that files into 84 files and programed a single script the populated the 84 mockup templates files is a single run.  It still took the script over three hours to produce the 3,444 output jpeg files.   Combinging multiple mockup into a single file slow down processing. Increases  the completely of the Template files make it harder to create, maintain and use.     Do you think that  General Motors has one assemble lime the hast all parts and design element  for all of their car models they the are all produced in a single assembly line.   You are needlessly complicating your production process and it will take you a year or more to learn Photoshop Scripting.  Do your really want to become a programmer]?   My Advice to you is search Adobe Stock and the World Wide Web for  Mockup templates designs.  See how other design their Templates and see if the are any that are designed to be populated via some Automated process.  I know there are some designed to be populated with Adobe Photoshop automation.   There may also other automated process that do not  use Adobe products.      You want to create your own Product designs.    You do not need to develop you own development tools and production line and program every line of code.   You can and should use products  available in the marketplace  to help you produces your  product jpeg files.   ...

To change an Image Aspect Ratio you need to Crop the Image to the Aspect Ratio you want and loose some Imaged Content. Or Add Canvas this will add a border(s) on one or side. Or distort the image into toe the Aspect Ratio you want with something like menu Edit>content Aware Scale or Free Transform  and you adjust the canvas for the distorted image's changed scale.   Change a 2:3  4"x6" portrait into a 3:2 Lanscape 9"x 6"   adding Canvas Cropping a 2:3 aspect ratio portrait to a 3:2 landscape Content Aware Scale ...

When it comes to templates the most important thing is that the replacement content must have the proper Aspect Ratio.  Replacement content must be appropriate their use in the template.   While replacement content that has the exact same Aspect Ratio and Size as the content in the Template is best.  Replacement results may be accessible if the replacement content  has an Aspect Ration close to the image's content in the template. If the Script has some options the address the replacement content Aspect related to the templates content.    In general if the imaged content has a wide Landscape Aspect Ration.  Replacement content that has a tall Portrait aspect ratio will not produce accessible results and  a wide Landscape replacing a portrait aspect ratio design will also not be accessible.   I classify templates into two categories.  Collage Templates and Mockup templates.    While Image Replacement in both Collage Templates and  Mockup  are Smart Object Layers.   Collage Templates do not have Smart Object layers in the  Template where Mockup Templates  haves Smart object Layers on top on the layers stack to be replaced.  Withe Mockup Templates Replacement content must have the exact same aspect Ratio, Size and resolution as the Smart object layers on top of the layers stack for the Populating Mockup Script  to use Photoshop Replace Content for the top Smart Object Layers.  My Mockup Scripts have an option to Edit Smart object layers instead of using replace content with some addition option for fitting replacement into the current object.  However, all Smart objects are not Photoshop object. So Smart Object that is a RAW Camera Image Data and Vector Images can not be edited  my  Photoshop scripts so my  mockup scripts  will bypass replacing those Photoshop Smart objects.    Collage Templates do not Have Smart Objects layers in the template. They have Alpha Channels that Map Image Location Size and Shape. These area will be covered with Smart Object Layer that are scaled to the collage Images location Size and shape.  However  The Collage scripts do not  Support Image  rotation and warping like perspective.  Mockup Templates are required if you need Image rotation and Warping. ...

IMO if you have 20 or 30 Product you should have 20 or 30 Product Mockup Templates and s script to populate the Mockups with you design changes and logos.  Anytime you want to change a product you create your design replacement elements  and run your script on the mockup template for the  product.   There is no need to have common products elements or design elements between products.  There is no good reason to put all you eggs in one basket.  Putting all to products in one file makes it harder to maintain that file and create a single point of failure, slow down Photoshop processing for Photoshop is processing a large Document Files  where you have most of the layers visibility are off for one only one products layer are visible.  To save our you images.

Image have different Aspect ratios therefor you need to have a Frame for each Possible Image Aspect Ratio or Crop the Image to fit a particular Frame.  Or dynamically create Mats and Picture frames for your image.  Years ago I made some Actions  and Script available to help you to mat and frame images.  To crop and stamp exif info etc.   I have not use them in years they may still work.  I never receiver any feedback  or bug reports.

If you want  to add canvas boarders you would  need to find or write a script that Adds add canvas to make the canvas have the aspect ration you want. The script would need to prompt you  enter the aspect ratio you want the canvas to have. The Script would calculate  the amount of canvas that need to be add.  Then execute a Canvas Size step with the correct canvas size with the Anchor point set so the canvas would be added on the side you want or the Anchor Point set centered  so the added even border will on the top and bottom or the left and right.  Or you write plug-in script so the you can record the aspect ratio in an action for each Aspect ratio canvas you want to create.   There may be script other have created to do this.  It not a script I would want.  Canvas need to be added to increase the current canvas's width or height  so the canvas will have the aspect ratio you want. ...

They do not want the canvas squares now.  They want deterrent output canvas aspect ratios.  For me  the easily method is a centered Aspect Ratio  crop that will loose some image content.  The other method would be to add canvas to make the canvas the aspect ratio they want which would add canvas boarders not loose Image Content.  Personally I do not like a boarder added to one  side or two opposite sides.  I rather loose image content.  Chick script makes  canvas square for the longest image side it adds white boarders. To make the canvas square.   My Plug-in would set a centers square selection you would  crop to and loose some image content.  You can record any Aspect  Ratio  you want to crop to,  You will always loose content for images that do not have the output Aspect ratio.  That is why I set the selection relative to the current documents orientation Landscape or Portrait. to minimize the image content lost..  Landscape do not crop to Portrait well and Portraits do not crop toe landscape well.    Cropping an Image to a centered max centered square selection may not be acceptable. If you  start with a supper wide panorama or tall skyscraper.  Adding canvas never looses Image content however, small to giant canvas boarders will be added ... View more
