t’s not the sexiest topic, but no Shopify review would be complete without discussing the importing of data, which can make or break your experience with an online shop builder.
Fortunately, Shopify makes this process simple and easy by allowing you to import important product data directly from a CSV file. This is extremely helpful and will save considerable time if you’re migrating data from a different platform or bulk uploading several products to your Shopify store.
Shopify Plus customers can also utilize new features like the command-line tool and Transporter app to import products as well.
As far as text-based data goes, you can also import content from WordPress, Tumblr, and other blogging platforms. To do so, you can simply copy and paste the content, use a third-party app, or if you know what you’re doing, use the Shopify API.
Creating Product Variations with Shopify
Shopify allows for up to 100 product variations. However, these variations can only be applied to three different product options.
For instance, if you’re creating an ecommerce website to sell hats, you can have up to 100 variations of a single hat based on size, style, and color.
