Tuotteiden tuonti ja vienti CSV-tiedostojen avulla

Voit käyttää CSV-tiedostoa (pilkuin erotellut arvot) tuotteiden tuomiseen Shopify-kauppaasi ja niiden viemiseen kaupastasi. Käyttämällä CSV-tiedostoa voit kerralla tuoda tai viedä suuren määrän tuotteita tietoineen. Tämä voi olla hyödyllistä, jos haluat siirtää tuotteiden tietoja Shopifyn ja jonkin toisen järjestelmän välillä.

Lue lisää siitä, miten voit avata ja muokata CSV-tiedostoa.

CSV-tiedoston mallin lataaminen

Voit ladata CSV-esimerkkitiedoston, tarkastella sitä ja käyttää sitä mallina.

• Näytetiedostossa on esimerkkituote ja muutama tuoteversio. Tuontitiedostosi sisältää todennäköisesti paljon enemmän tuotteita ja versioita. Jos käytät mallitiedostoa oman tuontitiedostosi luomiseen, varmista, että poistat kaikki esimerkkituotteet.

• Esimerkkitiedosto sisältää Variant Inventory Qty -sarakkeen, jota käytetään vain kaupoissa, jotka toimivat vain yhdessä sijainnissa. Jos kauppasi toimii useissa sijainneissa ja haluat tuoda tai viedä varastomääriä, käytä varaston CSV-tiedostoa.

Huomioitavaa tuotteen CSV-tiedostoon liittyen

Tarkista seuraavat seikat, ennen kuin käytät tuotteen CSV-tiedostoa:

Tuotteen CSV-tiedoston muotoilu

Jotta tuotteen CSV-tiedosto toimisi oikein, varmista, että se täyttää seuraavat kriteerit:

• tuotteen CSV-tiedoston ensimmäisellä rivillä on sarakkeiden otsikot tuotteiden CSV-kuvaustaulukossa määritetyllä tavalla

• sarakkeet on erotettu toisistaan pilkulla.

Huomaa

Jos muokkaat CSV-tiedostoa Excelin avulla, tarkista Excelin vientiasetukset, kun viet CSV:n, jotta voit varmistaa, että tiedostossasi käytetään arvojen välissä pilkkuja.

Tuotteen CSV-tiedoston pakolliset sarakkeet

Nämä sarakkeet ovat pakollisia seuraavissa tapauksissa:

• Kun luot tuotteen CSV-tiedoston uusien tuotteiden tuontia varten, ainoa pakollinen sarake on Title.

• Kun päivität tuotteita CSV-tiedostoa käyttämällä, ainoat pakolliset sarakkeet ovat Handle ja Title.

Tuotteen CSV-tiedoston sarakkeet, joiden täytyy sisältää arvoja

Title-sarakkeen lisäksi myös joissakin muissa sarakkeissa on oltava arvo. Kun sarake, jossa arvo on pakollinen, on tyhjä, sarakkeeseen luodaan oletusarvo automaattisesti seuraavissa tapauksissa:

• sarake on olemassa, mutta sarakkeen arvot ovat tyhjiä
• saraketta ei ole CSV-tiedostossa, mutta arvot eivät voi olla tyhjiä.

Seuraavassa taulukossa näet sarakkeet, joissa arvo on pakollinen, ja oletusarvon, joka luodaan automaattisesti, jos sarake on tyhjä.

Tuotteen CSV-tiedoston sarakkeet, joissa arvo on pakollinen, ja oletusarvot, jotka luodaan automaattisesti, jos arvo puuttuu.

Sarake	Oletusarvo, joka luodaan, kun sarake on tyhjä
Handle	Tämä arvo luodaan Title-sarakkeen arvon perusteella. Jos esimerkiksi Title-sarakkeen arvo on Black Sun Glasses, tämän sarakkeen arvo on black-sun-glasses.
Vendor	Kaupan nimi, kuten olet kirjoittanut sen, kun loit Shopify-tilisi. Esimerkiksi John's Apparel tai johns-apparel. Tämä on sama kaupan nimi, jota käytät, kun kirjaudut sisään Shopifyihin.
Published	TRUE, eli tämä tuote julkaistaan ja se on saatavilla verkkokaupan myyntikanavassa.
Option1	Title
Option1 Value	Default Title
Variant Inventory Quantity	0
Variant Inventory Policy	deny Kun arvo on deny, se tarkoittaa, että tuotetta ei voida ostaa sen jälkeen, kun sen varastomäärä laskee nollaan.
Variant Fulfillment Service	manual
Variant Price	0.0
Variant Requires Shipping	TRUE Kun arvo on TRUE, se tarkoittaa, että tuote on fyysinen tuote.
Variant Taxable	TRUE
Variant Grams	0.0
Variant Weight Unit	kg
Status	active

Overwriting product details using an import CSV file

Kun tuot CSV-tiedoston, voit valita vaihtoehdon Korvaa nykyiset tuotteet, joilla on sama kutsumanimi. Olemassa olevia arvoja käytetään kaikkiin puuttuviin sarakkeisiin. Jos valitset tämän vaihtoehdon, CSV-tiedoston arvot korvaavat olemassa olevan tuoteluettelon vastaavassa sarakkeessa olevat arvot, kun CSV-tuontitiedoston käyttönimi vastaa olemassa olevaa käyttönimeä. Jos korvausvaihtoehtoa ei ole valittu, nykyistä käyttönimeä vastaavat tuotteet ohitetaan CSV-tiedoston tuonnin yhteydessä.

• Jos CSV-tuontitiedoston pakollinen sarake on tyhjä, tuoteluettelon vastaavat arvot korvataan tyhjällä.

  Olemassa olevan tuoteluettelon Standard Product Type-arvo on esimerkiksi John's Apparel, mutta tuomasi CSV-tiedoston Standard Product Type-sarake on tyhjä. Tässä tapauksessa John's Apparel korvataan tyhjällä.

• Jos tuonnin CSV-tiedostossa vapaaehtoista saraketta, joka sisältyy olemassa olevaan tuoteluetteloon, tuoteluettelon arvo pysyy samana.

  Jos esimerkiksi Variant Image -sarake sisältyy olemassa olevaan tuoteluetteloon, mutta kyseinen sarake ei sisälly tuonnin CSV-tiedostoon, tuoteluettelon arvo pysyy samana.

Huomio

Tuotteen CSV-tiedoston sarakkeiden Option1 Value, Option2 Value tai Option3 Value tietojen poistaminen poistaa olemassa olevat versiotunnukset ja luo uudet versiotunnukset. Mahdolliset muutokset versiotunnusten arvoihin voivat rikkoa kolmannen osapuolen riippuvuussuhteita versiotunnuksilla.

Collection column exception

Huomio

The Collection column is the only column that you can add to the CSV file that doesn't break the format. You can't add any other columns to your CSV file.

To organize your products into collections during the CSV file upload, you can add a new column anywhere in your CSV file with the header name Collection.

When you export a CSV file, the Collection column is not included.

Description of the Collection column in the product CSV import file.

Column

Description

Collection

Enter the name of the collection that you want to add this product to. If it's an existing automatic collection, then the product needs to meet the conditions for the collection. If the collection doesn't already exist, then a manual collection is created. You can add a product to only one collection. This value can be blank. Learn more about how overwriting existing products affects the data in this column.

Create your product CSV file

For each product, you need to decide if it's a simple product or one with variants.

• Simple product: A simple product doesn't include variants. If you upload a product that doesn't have variants, then enter all the fields for the product in the first row along with the URL for the first image. In the following rows, only enter the handle and the URL for each additional image.

• Product with variants: If you upload a product that has variants, then enter all the fields for the product in the first row along with the URL for the first image. In the following rows, enter the handle. Then skip the Title, Body (HTML), Vendor, and Tags columns. Fill out the rest of the variants' details and each image URL.

After you've added all your products and images, save your CSV file in UTF-8 format using LF-style linefeeds. If you're not familiar with encodings, then see your spreadsheet or text editor program's documentation.

To view an example CSV file, download this sample product CSV file, and then open it in Google Sheets or another spreadsheet program.

Prepare your images

A CSV file can only contain text, therefore, you need to make sure that all product images are on an existing website. Those image URLs are only used during the CSV file importing process. You can delete the URLs after your import is complete.

• If the files are only on your computer, then to link to their URL, you must upload them to your Shopify store or to another image hosting service.

• If you're switching to Shopify from another platform, then you can copy the current image URLs and use them in the CSV file.

• If the product CSV file was produced by exporting your products from Shopify, then you don't need to do anything because your images are already on your website.

Huomio

If you remove products or product images from your Shopify store after exporting, and then try to import those products without updating their image URLs, your import fails.

When you have URLs for each product image, you can start building your CSV file.

Adding multiple product images in a CSV file

You can add more product images to your CSV file by uploading more images to your Shopify admin. If you're building your Shopify store with a CSV file, then the process is a little different. Review the following considerations:

• You need to be able to edit a CSV file. Shopify recommends using Google Sheets to view a formatted version of your CSV files.

• You can add up to 250 images to a product.

• Your product images must be uploaded to a publicly accessible URL. That is, they should be behind an https:// protocol with no password protection. To do this, you can upload images to the Files page of the Shopify admin. The URLs generate automatically. After you click Upload files, you can select up to a couple hundred images to upload in bulk.

Add multiple product images to your CSV file

1. Insert new rows. You must use only one row per image.
2. Copy and paste the handle.
3. Copy and paste the image URLs.

Insert a new row

1. Open your CSV file in your spreadsheet program, such as Google Sheets.

2. Locate the products that you want to add images to.

3. In the next row, click and drag the row numbers to select multiple rows. Select the same number of rows as the number of additional images you add.

   

4. While those rows are highlighted, right-click anywhere in the highlighted area, and then select Insert X rows above.

   

Copy and Paste the Handle value

1. Copy and paste the Handle value of the required product into column A for your new rows.

   

Copy and Paste the image URLs

1. On the Files page, upload your images to Shopify.

2. Click the Copy link icon for one image URL at a time.

   

3. In the CSV file in your spreadsheet application, scroll sideways to the last columns of the CSV file.

4. In the Image Src column, paste the image URL into each line.

   

5. Repeat steps 2 to 4 for all the images for this product

6. Optional: To improve your SEO, enter values into all the Image Alt Text fields. Learn more about Image alt text.

7. Save the CSV file and import it to Shopify.
