Open Import Products. The page explains that you will select one or more product subcategories, choose the details you want to include, download a workbook template, and upload it to publish your listings. Use ← Back to Dashboard to leave the wizard.

​
Step 1: Select Product Categories

Section heading: Step 1: Select Product Categories. When this step is done, a Complete pill can appear next to the heading.
  • Under Product family and subcategory, use Search categories or browse Product family and Subcategory like on the single-product form.
  • You can select multiple subcategories. They appear under Selected subcategories as chips you can remove.
  • Choose Continue with selected categories (enabled only after at least one subcategory is selected).

​
Step 2: Add Product Details

Section heading: Step 2: Add Product Details.
  • For each selected subcategory, an accordion section opens so you can set titles, descriptions, brand, stock location, and which columns to include in the Excel workbook (SKU-defining columns, per-variation detail columns, and so on—labels match your subcategory).
  • When everything required is filled, choose Create Drafts & Download Workbook.
A note on the page: If a cell is locked in Excel, you cannot change or add anything there. Do not try to edit locked columns in the downloaded file.

​
Step 3: Download Workbook

Section heading: Step 3: Download Workbook.
  • Text explains that drafts are created and you should download the workbook, fill it in, then proceed to upload.
  • Use Download Workbook to get the .xlsx file. There is one sheet per subcategory you selected.

​
How the workbook is organized

  • Instruction rows at the top explain how to fill the sheet.
  • Locked columns (often including draft reference and title) must stay as provided.
  • SKU-defining columns (blue-tinted in the file) are the combinations that create separate variations.
  • Per-variation detail columns (purple-tinted) add extra information per row.
  • Required columns (yellow-tinted, often marked with *) include Price, Stock, and Lead Time. Values must follow the rules shown in the sheet (for example: positive price with up to two decimal places using a dot, whole-number stock, Lead Time exactly matching one of the allowed options).

​
Step 4: Upload Product File

Section heading: Step 4: Upload Product File.
  • The page states that error-free upload only stages data and publishing requires explicit confirmation per product.
  • Under Workbook, choose your filled .xlsx file, then Upload Workbook.
  • If the upload reports problems, use Download Errors (when shown) to see what to fix, correct the workbook, and upload again.

​
Step 5: Review & Confirm

Section heading: Step 5: Review & Confirm.
  • Ready items have at least one valid variation row and no blocking errors.
  • Use Confirm & Publish all ready products when you want to publish everything that is ready, or publish one product at a time from the list (buttons or actions shown per draft).
  • Each draft shows status such as ready, errors, no rows, or published, depending on your batch.

​
Danger Zone

At the bottom, open Danger Zone if you need to delete all draft products created by the current active bulk batch and reset this flow.
  • In Type DELETE to enable reset, enter the word DELETE exactly.
  • Then Delete All Batch Drafts & Reset becomes available. Use this only when you intend to start over; it removes that batch’s drafts.
