Hello,

We imported our product data already. But we have not imported the variants yet. How can we update the existintg products but creating variants? 

What I did:

I created  an  attribute :  "Attribute test: (I tried with  variant creation mode = Dynamically or Instant) with  2  values:  "Value 1" and "Value 2"

1/ Go to Export Variant > Export data (with internal ID, external ID, name)

2/ As the product does not have any variant, I created new lines in the  CSV /  Excel  file  with the following columns and values:

- Name = PRODUCTNAME

- product_template_attribute_value_ids =  Attribute test: Value 2

3/ To import: Product variant > Favorites > Import > Upload file

--> But when I upload I get this error message: 

No matching record found for name 'Attribute test: Value 2' in field 'Attribute Values' at row 2 ( PRODUCTNAME )

Can you please help?  Thank you.

Hello,

First, you can export the product you needed. So you will get the External ID of the product.

id
name
attribute_line_ids/attribute_id
attribute_line_ids/value_ids
__export__.product_template_41565_b5dbe71f
1 Application Body Fluid Clean-Up Spill Kit Refill 717
Type
S2,S3
Like the above table, "id" is the External Id of the product.

"name" is the Product name

"attribute_line_ids/attribute_id" is the Variant Type.

"attribute_line_ids/value_ids" is the Variant Values. If you have multiple values, then give them separated by a comma.

You can do this on the the product.template
