Adding Images To Products

Overview

If you have previously created products and would now like to import images onto those products, follow the below instructions:

Create Your CSV File

Columns

CSV Structure

🚧

Note that multiple gallery images are handled with new rows.
Note that the Main Image is repeated in the image and media_image columns and the Main Image's Alt Tag is put in the media_label column

❗️

Importing an image with a width greater than 5000px will fail and result in a blank image. Please reduce the size of your image to be below 5000px.

Notes on above:

• Image - Full URL Path used because this image is stored externally and will be downloaded during the CSV import.
• *Media_image - Relative path used because image was uploaded onto Zoey server using Import Products from the Import & Export Menu (see below)
  Note: If your uploaded images are in the folder you need to include the folder name in the path. e.g. /foldername/my_image.jpg
  (Use one or the other, not both)

Import The CSV File

Once your CSV has been Created, proceed to Import Products from the Import & Export Menu (see below)

• Entity Type = Products
• Import Type = Append Complex Data
• Upload your CSV file
• Click "Check Data" button in top right of screen
• If everything looks good, you will have a green bar with a button to import

If you encounter errors during the check data step, please read our KB article on Import Errors

Refresh & Review

Often after running imports you may need to Flush Cache and Re-Index (from the "Refresh" menu in the blue sidebar) to see your changes live.
