Importing products
To transfer a large amount of product information between Quaderno and another system, you can use a specially-formatted spreadsheet, CSV.
Quaderno uses CSV (Comma-Separated Value) files to perform this kind of bulk task, like in this example: products.csv
To import products, follow these steps:
- Go to the products page and click Import products.
- Drag & drop your CSV file in the modal window.
Note that only creation of products is supported. When products with the same SKU are found on the system, they won’t be updated and an error screen will appear.
