Note: The bulk CSV upload option is only available on request. Please contact your account manager for enablement. 



To bulk update products using CSV, go to Store > Products and click on the " Add/Import" button on the top right and select the "Bulk CSV import" option

Next, you'd see the below screen, where you will have to upload 2 seperate .CSV data files for your products and variations.

IMP: Before you begin

Before your .CSV or .TSV files for your products or variations, you need to make sure

1. the column formatting matches the identifier type that Jumper accepts
2. you have not, by mistake made any changes to the coloumn headers including adding extra spaces, additional characters, or updated the sequence of the coloumns.
3. your product information is entered using the correct format types detailed in the sections below. 

This helps Jumper process your hashed column data to find matches during the upload.

If you face any error during the upload, please make sure to verify your file is inline with the details mentioned here. 

  1. To bulk upload products, download the Product CSV file format by clicking on the Download Sample CSV text.
