How to Export Catalog Setup to Excel
What This Task Does
This task exports catalog setup data to an Excel workbook so you can review it, share it, or prepare bulk updates.
Use it when you need a catalog template or when you need to inspect product, category, brand, collection, type, or attribute data outside the admin screens.
Before You Start
Make sure:
- you can access
Tools > Excel - you know which catalog sheets you need
- you know whether your export needs a specific manufacturer or vendor context
Steps
- Open
Tools > Excel. - Choose the product export workflow.
- Select the sheets you want to export.
- If the selected sheets require it, choose the manufacturer or vendor context.
- Run the export.
- Review the workbook and keep only the sheets your team actually needs for the next step.
Typical catalog sheets include:
- product categories
- product manufacturers
- product collections
- product types
- product type to product category relations
- product attributes
- products
- product images
- product documents
- product videos
- product terms
- cross-sells and upsells
What Happens Next
After export:
- you have a workbook representing the selected catalog setup
- the workbook can be used for review, planning, or later bulk updates
- some downstream workflows such as imports or product-group setup may depend on keeping UUID and relation data intact
Common Mistakes
- Exporting too many sheets when the real goal only needs a small subset.
- Forgetting the manufacturer or vendor requirement for the selected sheet set.
- Editing the workbook without understanding which sheets are relationships versus main records.
