You’ve imported your products, enriched them with AI, and now they’re ready to go to work. Exporting sends your improved product data wherever it needs to be: back to your store, out to a marketplace, into a data platform, across to another project, or down to your computer as a file. The payoff of a good export is simple: your channels show accurate, complete product data without you editing each platform by hand.

​
Export destinations

Exporting selected products from WISEPIM to a store, marketplace, data platform or file
  • Files: CSV or Excel, to download for backup, migration, or use in another tool.
  • E-commerce platforms: any connected integration that supports export, for example Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, Lightspeed, Lightspeed E-Series (Ecwid), and CCV Shop.
  • Marketplaces and shopping: Google Merchant Center (Google Shopping), and more as you connect them.
  • Data platforms: Databricks, to push product data into your analytics stack.
  • Another project: copy selected products straight into one of your other WISEPIM projects.
File exports are always available. Every other destination shows up automatically once you connect the matching integration. Set yours up on the Integrations page first.

​
Choose what to export

You decide which products go, in the same way you work on the Products page:
MethodHow
Selected productsCheck the boxes next to specific products, then click Export
Filtered productsFilter your catalog, then export everything that matches
All productsSelect nothing, and the export covers your whole catalog

​
Shape the export

The export modal is more than a download button. These options control exactly what lands in the export, which is the difference between a messy dump and a channel-ready file.
OptionWhat it does
Export templatesSave a destination plus its column and language setup as a named template, then reuse it in one click. Build “Shopify export” or “Price list” once and never reconfigure it.
ColumnsFor CSV and Excel, pick exactly which fields to include and in what order. Send only what the receiving system needs.
LanguagesChoose which language columns to export. Send one market its language, or everything at once.
Units of measureDecide how unit values appear: value and unit together (100 mm), in separate columns, or value only. See Units of measure.
Skip unchangedOn by default for platform exports. Products that haven’t changed since the last export to that platform are skipped, so syncs are faster and you don’t touch listings that don’t need it.
Save an export template for every recurring job. The next monthly price update or channel sync becomes a single click with the right columns, languages, and settings already chosen.

​
Export to a platform

1

Select your products

On the Products page, select products or apply a filter.
2

Click Export

Open the Export button in the toolbar.
3

Pick a destination and options

Choose the platform (only connected integrations are shown), then set the columns, languages, and skip-unchanged option, or load a saved template.
4

Start the export

WISEPIM prepares your data, connects to the platform, and pushes it over in the background.
Exports run as background jobs. You don’t wait on the page: WISEPIM hands the export to the Process Tracker, where you can watch progress and see the result. You get a notification when it finishes.

​
Export to a file

Need your data as a file, for a backup, a migration, or another tool?
1

Click Export, then choose CSV or Excel

Pick the format you want.
2

Choose columns and languages

Select exactly which fields and languages to include, or apply a saved template.
3

Generate the file

The export runs and the file is ready to download. Larger catalogs generate as a background job in the Process Tracker, so give big files a moment.
  • CSV: universal, works with everything. UTF-8 encoded for international characters.
  • Excel: a formatted spreadsheet with proper column types, ready for analysis or sharing.

​
How long does it take?

File exports are fast because there’s no platform rate limiting. Platform exports depend on how quickly the target accepts requests, and each platform throttles differently.
Catalog sizeFile exportPlatform export
Under 100 productsA few secondsUnder a minute
100–1,000 productsUnder a minute5–15 minutes
1,000–10,000 productsA few minutes15 minutes – 1 hour
10,000–50,000 productsA few minutes1–4 hours
Turn on Skip unchanged for routine platform syncs. After the first full export, later runs only send the products that actually changed, which is far faster than re-sending the whole catalog.

​
After exporting

  1. Verify on your platform: log into your store and spot-check a few products.
  2. Check your storefront: make sure products display correctly to customers.
  3. Review categories: confirm category assignments carried over.

​
Troubleshooting

  • Check that your integration is connected on the Integrations page.
  • Re-test the connection. API credentials may have expired.
  • Confirm your API user has write permissions.
  • With Skip unchanged on, products that haven’t changed since the last export are skipped on purpose. Turn it off to force a full re-export, for example after changing the channel’s settings.
  • Shopify: check API permissions and rate limits.
  • WooCommerce: confirm the REST API is enabled with write access.
  • Magento: confirm your API user can create and update products.
  • Check your browser’s download settings and popup blocker.
  • For large catalogs, wait a moment. The file generates as a background job first, then downloads.
Large catalogs and platform rate limits slow things down. For very large exports, split them by category or filter, and turn on Skip unchanged for repeat runs.
