Video walkthrough

The full import of products, variants and values is shown step by step in a video: Products and Product Variants - IMPORT TUTORIAL. Ask your consultant for the video if you need it.

Excel template

Use the Excel template TEMPLATE - PRODUCT & PRODUCT VARIANTS as your starting point. Fill in the fields you need for products, variants and their values. The template follows the same column layout as the video, so you can get your import file ready quickly.

Do not need attributes or variants? A simpler import will do. There is a separate article with a product import template without variants.
