Shopify Product Export task allows you to export or update your products and product information (such as Product ID, Description, Size, Barcode, RRP, ATS, Cost, Weight, Country of Origin and Image 1) from Zedonk. Before you proceed with the Product Export task, ensure you add your Products to the Catalogue and review your Settings to specify what product details you want to export.
If your products were created directly in Shopify (outside of the Shopify Connector), skip this step to avoid duplicates. Instead, proceed to link your products between Zedonk and Shopify using the Product IDs Sync.
If you have previously exported products from Zedonk using the Shopify Connector and you have made any changes to the exported products in Shopify (for example, you updated the Product Title, Description), you most likely do not want Zedonk to overwrite changes you made in Shopify with the details in Zedonk. Each section and product in the catalogue can be temporarily marked as non-exportable to exclude it from the Product Export. Please review the Catalogue lesson to learn how to do this.
Go to Connectors > Shopify Connector > Actions
Press the green arrow next to Products - Export
Click the Products Export button
The below pop-up will appear to confirm the ATS Export season(s) and Price Export Season(s).
If you see a warning sign on your Export button then a product(s) in your Catalogue does not have a barcode number assigned to it. Go to the Barcodes module to assign barcodes to all products you want to export to Shopify.
The Product Export action will be running in the background. Depending on the number or products you are exporting, on most occasions this process can take up to 30 minutes. You can monitor the progress of the Product Export action by going to Connectors > Shopify > Activity area.
