Download & export

Export corrected data as Standard CSV or Shopify product CSV from preview or the imports list.

Download export gives you a corrected file after validation and editing — without running the final import. Use it to share clean data with other systems or as a backup before importing.

Where to download

You can export from two places:

  1. Import preview — click Download CSV in the toolbar while reviewing data
  2. Imports list — click Download CSV on an import card when review is available

Both locations offer the same export formats.

Export formats

Click Download CSV to open the format menu:

FormatBest for
Standard CSVGeneral use, spreadsheets, and systems that accept a flat CSV
Shopify product CSVImporting or updating products in Shopify

Choose the format that matches your destination platform.

What is included in the export

Exported files reflect:

  • Your original data after column mapping
  • All saved edits (cell changes, bulk edits, added rows)
  • Row deletions you have saved

Unsaved changes are not included. Save your work first — see Save & discard.

Export process

  1. Click Download CSV.
  2. Select Standard CSV or Shopify product CSV.
  3. Wait while the file is prepared (the button may show "Preparing…").
  4. Your browser downloads the file automatically.

The downloaded file name is based on your original upload name.

Export with validation errors

You can typically export even when errors remain — useful for sharing progress with a colleague or working offline. However, the exported file still contains invalid data until you fix errors in preview.

For a clean handoff, resolve all errors before exporting.

Shopify format notes

The Shopify product CSV includes the columns Shopify Admin expects for catalog and inventory updates, including:

  • Handle, Tags, Option1–Option3 Name/Value, Variant Grams, Image Position
  • Variant Inventory Policy (deny / continue)
  • Variant Inventory Tracker
  • Variant Inventory Qty, Variant Price, Variant Compare At Price
  • Variant Barcode, Image Src, Status

See the full column map in Shopify inventory CSV template. Verify a small sample in Shopify before importing very large catalogs.

Tip: Export after saving as a checkpoint before running Import now — you will have a local copy of exactly what will be imported.
