Export Your Products to Excel or CSV

Download your source products, or one row per SKU, as a CSV or Excel file to share with a marketplace for approval, review your catalog, or keep a backup.

You can download your source products as a CSV or Excel file: one row per product, or one row per variant (SKU). Marketplaces often want to review a brand's catalog before it goes live, and this is the quickest way to hand one over before you commit to creating listings. Exports run in the background and the file is ready to download when they finish.

What you can export

  • Products — one row per product with its identifiers, brand, description, tags, prices, stock total, weight and dimensions, image links, highlights, the option names it varies by (size, color, and so on), and any extra attributes (metafields) on the product. In Excel format each row also includes the product's photo embedded right in the spreadsheet.

    The price and MSRP columns (price_range, msrp_range) show a single number when every variant has the same price, or the lowest and highest price as 19.99 to 29.99 when they differ. The sizes and colors columns list every size and color the product comes in, separated by | (for example Blue | Black and White | Lavender).

  • Product Variants (SKUs) — one row per variant with its own SKU, barcodes, price, stock, images and option values (for example Size: M, Color: Red). This is the format to re-import through product imports after editing it in a spreadsheet, and the one most marketplaces ask for.

Both formats use the same column names as the product import, so a file you export can be edited and imported again. The price range, MSRP range, sizes and colors columns on the Products format are for reference only and are ignored when you import the file. To change prices, edit and re-import the Product Variants format.

Export only the products you select

  1. Open Products in the left sidebar and tick the products you want to export. To export everything on the page, tick the checkbox in the table header.
  2. Click Choose action..., open Products, then click Export.
  3. Pick Products or Variants (SKUs). Open More options to choose CSV or XLSX, and for variants whether to repeat each parent's title, description and images on its variant rows (on by default). Turn that off if you prefer the parents as separate rows.
  4. Click Export. The file will appear on the Exports page when it's ready.

Export your whole catalog

  1. On the Products page, open the actions menu (...) and choose Exports under Imports/exports. This page lists your product and product variant exports. (The store menu at the bottom of the left sidebar also has an Exports page covering every export.)
  2. Click New export, then pick Products or Product Variants.
  3. Optionally narrow the export with the Product status buttons: pick one or more of Active, Draft, Archived and Unlisted. Leave them all unselected to export every product.
  4. Choose the file format and click Start Export.

Download the file

The export's page shows its status while it runs. When it finishes:

  • A Download button appears at the top of the export's page.
  • The Exports list shows a download button next to every completed export. Use the model type filter there to find product exports quickly.
  • If the export took more than a few seconds, you'll also receive an email with a download link.
