To bulk upload and change the handle field without creating product duplications, follow these steps:
1. Export Existing Products:
-
In the DataEase app, create a new export and select to export Products with only ID and Handle under Basic Columns.
-
Click the “Export” button to start the export and download the file once finished.
2. Prepare the Import File:
-
Edit the exported file and set new Handles for your Products in the file.
-
Ensure that the ID column remains unchanged to avoid creating duplicates.
3. Import Product Handles Bulk Update File:
-
Go back into the DataEase app and upload your edited file in the import section.
-
By default, the app will create a redirect from the old Handle to the new one. You can turn this off in the import Options if needed.
