WooCommerce csv import

  • I’m currently facing the challenge of preparing a csv file so that I can upload products to woocommerce via the csv file.

    The following problems occur:

    In this step I add my products. Then I convert it back into a CSV file “CSV UTF-8”.

    But the import doesn’t work because the tables etc. are no longer recognized. My question now is: How can I add products in the CSV file? Aren’t you allowed to convert the file from a csv file to an Excel file and then convert it back to csv?

    If so, how can you add your own products? Because that’s impossible in the csv view. The standard Woocommerce product import is used.

  • Just export your products from the store. So you’ll receive a csv, including all necessary headers, including metadata. Clear it and add your products.
    Caution: will work with simple products only.

    Hello ?? ,

    I understand you are having trouble preparing a CSV file.

    The example csv file is downloaded and you really can’t read it. It looks like this:?https://ibb.co/1zgv6bc

    Looking at your shared image, it seems like you downloaded the GitHub raw file instead of clicking on the correct Download button to have the CSV downloaded. Here’s a short explainer video to help download the correct file: https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/28321866?key=fed0d469c35314b5928014dc53e5300f.

    But the import doesn’t work because the tables etc. are no longer recognized. My question now is: How can I add products in the CSV file? Aren’t you allowed to convert the file from a csv file to an Excel file and then convert it back to csv?

    Here’s a detailed guide with detailed descriptions on how to edit and import your CSV files: https://woocommerce.com/document/product-csv-importer-exporter/#general-guidelines.
