Bulk data update

Bulk update process:

Step 1:  Export data to XLSX spreadsheet file

Step 2:  After you make changes, import the file to your store:

  1. Go to Catalog Import/Export and choose an Advanced import option
  2. Choose import type - update all data or delete all old data before Import

    Before product import, you have to create or import all store catalog structures - categories, product variants, and technical attributes and only after that, you can import products. fesh. will create all non-existent categories, but the best practice is to create all catalog structures before the products import

  3.  Click Choose file and select the import file from your computer
  4.  Press Import button
