Importing Products from the Admin

New in 3.0.0, the Import Products screen imports AliExpress products without the browser extension — by pasting product links or IDs, or by uploading a CSV file.

Go to Webkul WC Addons → Warehouse Manager → Import Products. The screen is available to administrators only.

Import from links or product IDs

1. Select From URL.
2. In AliExpress product links or IDs, paste one link or product ID per line — up to 50 at a time. The counter below the box shows how many products were recognized; duplicate lines are skipped.
3. Leave Skip products already in the import list ticked to skip products you already imported, or untick it to re-import them and refresh their data.
4. Select Import products.

Accepted formats include:

• product links such as https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009540964972.html from any AliExpress domain,
• bare product IDs such as 1005009044266929,
• links that carry the ID as a productId or itemId parameter.

Import from a CSV file

1. Select Upload CSV.
2. Select Download sample CSV to see the format.
3. Drop your file on Choose a CSV file or drop it here, or select it. The plugin reads it and reports how many products are ready and which rows have problems.
4. Select Import products.

Limits: a .csv file of up to 2 MB and 500 products, with column names in the first row. Common alternative headings such as link, product_url, id, or title are also recognized.

Names, prices, and meta values from the CSV are applied when you create the WooCommerce product.

Follow the results

Products are imported one at a time. The results table shows each product's status — Waiting, Importing…, Imported, Updated, Already in import list, or Failed — and whether reviews were imported. The summary line reads, for example, "1 imported · 0 updated · 1 already in the import list · 0 failed".

• Stop ends the run after the current product.
• Retry failed imports the failed products again.
• Go to import list opens the Imported Products List.

Keep the page open until the import finishes — leaving asks "Products are still being imported. Leave this page?"
