Importing attributes

Hi All,

I have looked at this extensively and what I am trying to do should be easy, but i’m really struggling to get it to work.

Basically, I have simple products added to a website.

I want to import attributes into those products, they are all YES/NO attributes.

An example attribute name is Organic, and the two “Terms” are Yes or No.

I have followed the template in the help docs and make a csv that contains;

ID, SKU, Product Name, Attribute1, Attribute2 etc etc.

The Attribute column headings are (for my above example) attribute_default:pa_organic and I have written Yes below it next to all the products (as all are organic)

The import says its updated all products, but none show these attributes.

Thanks in advance for your help and really sorry if this question has been answered before, I did look but couldn’t find anything.
