Frequently Asked Questions

Required: product_id, product_name, price. Recommended: sku (for matching), stock_level (for inventory), product_type (for categorization). The validator flags missing required fields.
Most import systems expect numeric values only. Currency symbols like $ or £ cause import failures. Use numeric values: 49.99 not $49.99.
Stock levels should be zero or positive. Negative stock usually indicates a data error. Use 0 for out-of-stock products.
No, this only validates. It shows you what's wrong. You fix the data in BigCommerce admin or edit the CSV, then re-export and re-validate.
