Beta

The Product Catalog is currently in Beta and is not yet available to all customers. Availability is being expanded gradually. Functionality, configuration, and behavior may change before general availability.

Overview

The Import/Export view lets you review all import and export jobs that have been created in the account, monitor their status, search and filter the job list, and create new jobs. Jobs run in the background and can be tracked individually.


Connect > Products > Import/Export
