Notes about this feature:

  • The first row in the CSV is reserved for the header columns. These must be in the correct order and spelled correctly.

  • The file must be saved in CSV format (.csv).

  • The main product 'Handle' (which contains all of the product information, title, long description, etc.) must appear in the CSV before any of its variation rows.

  • For each group of the product 'Handle', the import will update the product if the handle exists already or create a new if the handle has not been imported previously.

  • SKUs must be unique. So creating a new product with an existing SKU will result in the import producing an error.

  • Images must have a valid URL.

  • 'Tags', 'Option Names', and 'Option Values' must be separated by semicolons.

  • 'Visible', 'Stock Track', and 'Stock Unlimited' have to be set to 'yes' or 'no'.

  • 'Option Values' and 'Option Names' must have the same amount of entries.
