Import file

Before importing, you first need to create a correctly formatted CSV file. It is especially important to use the correct field names in the header.
The field names in the header have two parts, the name and the ID. The name corresponds to the name of the fields in the product detail view. You can modify this name if necessary. The internal names (IDs) are enclosed in square brackets and must never be changed. You can also interchange columns, as long as each column keeps its own heading.
Note: Use the export file as an example in order to have a template for the headings.
