How to Export Products from eBay Seller (2026 Guide)

Follow these steps to export your eBay Seller products as a CSV file. Once exported, you can use any of our converter tools to transform the data for your target system.

Export Steps

1

Sign in to eBay and open Seller Hub

Go to ebay.com and sign in with your seller account. Navigate to Seller Hub by clicking My eBay and then Selling, or go directly to ebay.com/sh/overview.

2

Navigate to the Reports tab

Click the Reports tab at the top of Seller Hub. This section contains bulk management tools for listings, orders, and other seller data. The Downloads page allows you to generate on-demand reports of your active inventory.

Choose All active listings as the report type

From the type dropdown, select All active listings. This ensures the export includes every currently live listing in your eBay store. The report will be generated in the File Exchange CSV format with all product fields.

Warning: The Seller Hub export has a limit of around 200-500 items per download depending on your account type. If you have more listings, you may need to download in batches or use the File Exchange tool directly for unlimited exports.
5

Download the report

Click Download to generate the file. eBay will prepare the CSV and add it to your recent downloads list. Once processing is complete, click Download next to the report to save it to your computer.

Alternative method using Active Listings view

You can also export from the Active Listings page directly. Go to Seller Hub Listings, select the listings you want to export using the checkboxes, choose Export to File (or Export to CSV) from the Actions dropdown, and save the file. This method gives you more control over which specific listings to include.

Tip: When exporting from Active Listings, use the Edit dropdown to select up to 500 listings at once, then export the batch. Repeat for additional batches if needed.

Review the product data

Open the CSV in a spreadsheet application. Each row represents one active listing. Key columns include Title, Custom label (SKU), StartPrice, Quantity, PicURL (pipe-separated image URLs), ConditionID, Category, and Item Specifics columns prefixed with "C:" (such as C:Brand, C:Size, C:Color).

8

Understand the File Exchange format

The exported CSV uses eBay's File Exchange format. Image URLs are separated by pipe characters (|) within the PicURL column. Item Specifics use the "C:" prefix convention (e.g., C:Brand, C:MPN). Condition codes are numeric (1000 for New, 3000 for Used). This format can be used for bulk re-listing or migration to other e-commerce platforms.

Tip: Save a copy of the original file before making any edits. The File Exchange format can be re-uploaded to eBay for bulk updates, so keeping a clean backup prevents accidental listing changes.

Required Products Fields
