Overview

Product attributes are specific product descriptors that define characteristics such as size, color, or material. This document covers the process of importing multiple product attributes using a CSV file. You also have the option to add product attributes manually.

​
CSV File Guidelines

Product attributes can be imported using CSV files exclusively, as fabric doesn’t support other data or file formats. Here are some essential points to keep in mind:

  • The headers in the first row of the CSV file should match the attribute titles.
  • While attribute titles aren’t case-sensitive, maintaining case consistency with the original attribute titles is recommended.
  • Empty rows and columns are ignored.
  • We recommend downloading the template file to serve as a guide when creating your own CSV file for import, minimizing errors during the process.

​
Attribute Data Formatting

When preparing your CSV file for import, ensure that the product attribute data format aligns with the column requirements. Different columns have specific data input requirements:

Date FormatSpecifies the required date format, such as MM/DD/YYYY, MM-DD-YYYY, DD/MM/YYYY, DD-MM-YYYY, YYYY/MM/DD, or YYYY-MM-DD. This is mandatory for date-type attributes; otherwise, the attribute can’t be imported.
