PrestaShop Import Export - Moving products and orders in and out of your PrestaShop store manually takes time and leads to mistakes. Supplier files often arrive in CSV, Excel, or XML format, and copying data manually is where errors often occur. Import Export for PrestaShop automates this, so you can keep your catalog accurate without the manual work.
Whether you're updating 50 products or 5,000, the module works quietly in the background without slowing your store down. It handles products, customers, orders, shipping, discounts, and more — and lets you bring in data from a file on your computer, FTP, a link, Google Sheets, Google Drive, or Dropbox. You can even schedule updates to run automatically.
The module can also reshape files that don't match your store's format before importing them, so you don't have to fix them yourself. When you re-import data, it updates existing products, customers, or orders instead of creating duplicates. It's built to make routine data updates simple and dependable for store owners — no technical background needed.
Highlighted Features
16 Entity Types
Import and export products, combinations, categories, customers, addresses, brands, suppliers, discounts, carriers, orders, and more.
8 Import Methods
Bring in data via file upload, saved history, FTP, SFTP, URL, Google Sheets, Google Drive, or Dropbox — whatever suits your workflow.
7 File Formats
Works with CSV, XLS, XLSX, XML, JSON, TXT, and ODS — no conversion needed. XSLT reshapes XML feeds to fit your template.
Cron Automation
Save your import setup as a cron job that runs on its own schedule, keeping your catalog updated automatically.
Regex and Value Mapping
Clean or reformat data during import and export using regex rules or value swaps to normalize supplier data.
Image Optimization
Product images resize to 1600×1600 px and compress automatically. Also supports importing images from local server URLs.
Import Workflow
The Import tab guides you through a three-step wizard: Import settings, Mapping, and Import execution. Each step is designed to catch errors before they touch your live catalog.
- Step 1 — Import settings: Choose an entity type, pick an import method, and set options like field separator, update-by key, and brand/supplier/category filters.
- Step 2 — Mapping: The module previews your file and auto-matches columns by header name; unmatched ones fall back to sequential order. Skip rows, set a row range, or add regex and value-mapping rules before proceeding.
- Step 3 — Import execution: The module validates each row, flags invalid ones in an error report, and processes the rest in AJAX batches sized by your server offset limit. A summary shows how many records were created or updated.
Export Workflow
The Export tab pulls PrestaShop data into a structured file. Choose the entity, tick the columns you want, set the output format, and download — or have the file emailed to you automatically.
- Select any of the 16 entity types and choose specific columns to include in the export output.
- Export in CSV, XLS, XLSX, or XML format — matching whatever your downstream tool expects.
- Sort results by ID, Reference, EAN, UPC, ISBN, Supplier reference, or MPN for clean, organised files.
- Filter by date range or price range when exporting orders or products, and expand multilang fields into per-language columns.
- Apply the same regex and value-mapping rules used in import to clean data before it leaves PrestaShop.
Scheduled Imports
Once an import is set up the way you want, save it as a cron job. The module stores the entire configuration — entity, source, mapping, and transformation rules — so future runs need no manual steps.
- Add cron: Creates a new scheduled import with the same fields as the Import tab, plus a notification email address and an optional row limit per cron request.
- SActivate or deactivate jobs at any time without deleting them, and enable auto-deactivation for one-time migrations that should turn themselves off after a successful run.
- Each job respects the PrestaShop multi-store context — jobs are scoped to a specific shop or shop group.
Prestashop Import Export Features -
- Works with 16 types of store data — including products, product variations, special pricing, categories, customers, addresses, brands, and more.
- 8 ways to bring in your data — upload a file directly, reuse a past upload, connect via FTP or SFTP, pull from a web link, or link Google Sheets, Google Drive, or Dropbox.
- Supports all common file types — CSV, XLS, XLSX, XML, JSON, TXT, and ODS, for both importing and exporting.
- Set it and forget it — schedule imports to run on their own so your catalog stays current without lifting a finger.
- See your data before it goes live — a visual preview lets you match your file's columns to the right store fields before anything is saved.
- Clean up messy data automatically — swap out values or fix formatting issues on the fly during import or export.
- Shrink and sharpen product images automatically — photos are resized and compressed for faster loading.
- Pull images from your own server — handy for testing or staging environments.
- Fix mismatched XML files — if a supplier's file doesn't follow your store's layout, the module can reshape it automatically before import.
- No duplicate entries — existing products, customers, or orders are updated in place by matching reference numbers, EAN, UPC, or similar identifiers.
- Export only what you need — pick specific columns and download as CSV, Excel, or XML.
- Stay in the loop — get an email the moment an import or export finishes.
- Narrow your imports — limit product uploads to specific brands, suppliers, or categories.

Had a very good experience with Webkul
I had a very good experience with Webkul regarding a module I wasn't using correctly. They gave me the right method and everything was sorted out.

This module is a must-have for anyone seeking excellence in their shop management needs. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
This module is truly impressive and comes highly recommended for its flawless performance. It provides a comprehensive solution for all your site's updating needs, encompassing both importing and exporting tasks. Personally, I found this module invaluable in overhauling my site and creating combinations, especially when faced with bugs in PrestaShop's core importing system. The module developer demonstrated exceptional assistance in addressing minor hiccups, promptly resolving issues through their dedicated team. The module offers numerous advantages beyond just importing; it facilitates the seamless export of all site data, allowing for convenient modifications. Unlike PrestaShop's product export, this module stands out by enabling the export of all product fields. A notable feature is the cron functionality, which proves highly beneficial when product data is stored in another database or your supplier's URL. This ensures that all product data remains up-to-date based on your specific timing requirements. In my opinion, this module is a game-changer for those who prioritize precision in managing their shop's operations. I wholeheartedly recommend it for its robust capabilities and the valuable support provided by the dedicated team.

How can I ensure my import files are correctly formatted?
Download the sample file for your entity from the module. It shows the exact column headers and format — compare with your file before importing.
Can I specify which rows to import from my data file?
Yes — You can choose to skip header rows, set a start row and end row, and limit how many rows each batch processes. Test with a small sample first.
Is it possible to import and export product information in multiple languages?
Yes. Enable the multilang option to import product name, summary, and description in every installed language. Export as separate per-language columns.
Can I manage field mapping during import to match my file structure?
Yes. Columns auto-match by header name and you can adjust manually. Add regex rules to clean values and value-mapping rules to rename fields.
How do I update existing products instead of creating duplicates?
Use 'Update entries by' to match existing records by ID, reference, EAN, UPC, ISBN, supplier reference, or MPN. The module updates matching rows instead of adding new ones.
How does the module handle import errors?
Invalid rows are skipped and shown in an on-screen error report, while valid rows are still imported. Download the full error log to fix issues and re-run.
