    Hi
    I would like to add new products by using Woo Commerce’s Product Importer but I am having problems.

    I have read through this page Product CSV Importer and Exporter and I am still having problems.

    What is actually required when importing new variable products as maybe I have missed something out?

    After the import, it says a number of products have been added, but when I go to All Products they haven’t been added. If they have been added then where are they?

    On Screen Message:

    Import complete! 19 products imported. File uploaded: dog-collars-leads2-1.csv

    Online CSV File

    Thanks

    Morris

    Hello Morris,

    All the products on your CSV are saved as variations, but there is not variable (or the parent) product under which you can access them. Here’s an example CSV that has both variations and parent variable products: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/blob/master/sample-data/sample_products.csv

    variation

    From example CSV file:

    Alternatively, you can create a new variable product on your store, add some example variations and then use the built-in exporter to see all the fields involved, and the values that go into their respective fields.

    Hi
    Thanks for the information, I managed to get one product to work that had 1 SKU number for 3 products in a pack that will be sold separately.

    If I have four items relating to the same product but it has sizes & colour as variants, and they have all got their own SKU’s.

    ie. 156000 (Size 1, Tan), 156010 (Size 1, Black), 156100 (Size 2, Tan) & 156110 (Size 2, Black)

    How can I set this up in a spreadsheet so that I can use a variable with variants? I have a number of simlar products and I need to keep the SKUs.

    Cheers

    Hi there!

    How can I set this up in a spreadsheet so that I can use a variable with variants? I have a number of simlar products and I need to keep the SKUs.

    The sample CSV I shared has examples of variations with colors and sizes.

    If that doesn’t help your find the exact values that you need, the easiest way forward would be to create one test variable product, export it, and then cross-check the values in the CSV so that you can create a larger pool of products in the CSV by following the example in the test product that you originally exported.
