Import Products
Overview
Section titled “Overview”The Import section is where product data enters MicroPIM. You can pull products from a single link, a category listing, an uploaded file, a supplier feed, or an entire website — and every run is tracked so you can monitor progress and fix errors.
MicroPIM imports product data only: products, variants, SKUs, prices, stock levels, categories, brands, images, attributes, and SEO fields.

Which import method should you use?
Section titled “Which import method should you use?”MicroPIM offers five ways to bring product data in: a direct link, a bulk listing URL, a file upload, a supplier feed, or a full-website crawl. All URL-based methods open from a single Import dialog with one tab per method, and each requires you to confirm the supplier agreement before starting.

| Import from Link | One or a few known product page URLs | Import from Link |
| Import Bulk | A single category, collection, or listing URL to expand | Import Bulk |
| Import from File | A CSV, XLSX, JSON, or XML product file you already have | Import from File |
| Import from Feed | A supplier or marketplace product feed | Import from Feed |
| Import from Website | Crawling a configured website’s full catalog via its sitemap | Import from Website |
