Import
Struct PIM's Import lets you bring data into your PIM in bulk, without touching each product, variant, or global list one by one.
If you're sitting on hundreds or thousands of rows of product data in a spreadsheet, import is what turns that into live data in PIM, instead of typing it in field by field.
In a nutshell, it's the module that maps columns from an Excel spreadsheet, or data from an installed app importer, onto data fields in the PIM, so you can create or update products, variants, variant groups, categories, or global lists all at once.
What you can do with Import
Bring data into your PIM from spreadsheets or installed app importers.
Use the build-in importers, "General Excel import" or "List property import", to map spreadsheet columns to data fields on products, variants, variant groups, categories or global lists.
Generate a template file matching the fields you want to import, so you can always know what to upload.
Track your import history, including the total number of imports, when the last one ran, and how many external app importers are installed.
Review recent imports and their status at a glance.
