Export your optimized content to Shopware 6 using the built-in Import/Export feature.

  • Choose "CSV Standard"

  • Download the file

CSV File Requirements

  • UTF-8 encoding required

Importing to Shopware 6

  • In Shopware Administration, go to Settings

  • Click "Shop" then "Import/Export"

Creating a Reusable Import Profile

For repeated imports, create a custom profile:

  • Go to Settings > Shop > Import/Export

  • Click the "Profiles" tab

  • Click "Add Profile"

  • Name it "Valuna Import"

  • Map all your fields once

  • Save the profile

Importing Product Variants

To import variants, use the "Default product" profile and check "Import product variants". Required variant fields: parent_id, product_number, active (0 or 1), stock, and optionIds.

Important Limitations

Imports can only add information, not remove it. For example, sales channel assignments cannot be removed via import.

Handling Errors

Shopware imports all valid records and creates a new CSV file with any errors. Download this file to fix issues and re-import.

Tip: Always run a "Dry Run" first to test your import before committing changes. Check the Import Activity section for history of the past 30 days.
