How To Export Products On Shopify
Last modified: January 6, 2023
Shopify is a versatile platform that allows you to export products to a CSV file. Using this option, you can transfer the products to a new online store or edit them in bulk using the spreadsheet and upload the changes through an import action. Or alternatively, you can use the CSV files as a backup and access them from a spreadsheet program.
In this article, we discuss how to export products from Shopify.

How To Export Your Products
Step 1: Log Into Your Shopify Store
Go to your Shopify store log in page and login.
Step 2: Go To Your Products Page
Through your Shopify admin page, click on the ‘Products’ tab.
Step 3: Export
On the Products page, click on the ‘Export’ option.
Step 4: Choose Products To Export
Then you will be presented with a dialog box. Choose the products you’re hoping to export. There are several options that will be presented. These include:
- All products in your store.
- All the products on your current page.
- Products that you’ve selected manually.
- Products that match a ‘Search and Filters’ criteria you’ve entered (or going to enter).
Step 5: Choose The Type Of CSV
Next you will need to select the type of CSV file that you want to export. If you’re looking to bulk edit your products, be sure to save the file in the file format that is applicable to your spreadsheet application (i.e. Excel, Numbers, etc.).
If you want to edit the content of the CSV after download with a plain-text editor, you will want to download a plain CSV file.
Step 6: Export
Click on the ‘Export products’ option.
Step 7: Go To Your Emails
Once requested the process is done in the background. When complete, an email is sent that contains a secure download link. You can click on the link to retrieve the product CSV file.
Filter And Export A List Of Products
Sometimes you don’t want all of your products. Therefore, you need to find the products you want and export only those. This can be done by adding a filter. This can make it easier for you to edit products when you only need to make changes to a select few.
To export a filtered product list, you need to follow these instructions.
Step 1: Log Into Your Shopify Store
Go to your Shopify store log in page and login.
Step 2: Go To Your Products Page
Through your Shopify admin page, click on the ‘Products’ tab.
Step 3: Filter products
On the products page you can add a filter that uses conditions you input. This will restrict the list to only the necessary products.
Step 4: Export
On the Products page, click on the ‘Export’ option.
Step 5: Choose Products To Export
Choose the option which tells the system to export the products that you’ve filtered. Don’t choose the ‘products on this page’ option as this may result in the wrong products being exported.
Step 6: Choose The Type Of CSV
Next you will need to select the type of CSV file that you want to export. If you’re looking to bulk edit your products, be sure to save the file in the file format that is applicable to your spreadsheet application (i.e. Excel, Numbers, etc.).
If you want to edit the content of the CSV after download with a plain-text editor, you will want to download a plain CSV file.
Step 7: Export
Click on the ‘Export products’ option.
Step 8: Go To Your Emails
Once requested, the process is done in the background. When complete, an email is sent that contains a secure download link. You can click on the link to retrieve the product CSV file.
Exporting your products can be very useful. You can do bulk editing, migration or even backup collections. So learning this skill is vital to the success of your store.
