Smarter blog post import lookup

A handful of changes to make blog post imports easier to write and more forgiving when your data isn’t perfectly normalized.

What’s new

#

• Find articles by Title - update or delete an article by its Title when you don’t have its ID or Handle. If the title isn’t unique, the row fails with a clear error so you can disambiguate (see BLG009).
• Default blog fallback - article rows that don’t specify Blog: ID, Blog: Handle, or Blog: Title now attach to your store’s first blog automatically. The Blog: Handle column is no longer required to be present on the import file.

Improvements

#

• Duplicate handles across blogs - the same article handle can now exist in different blogs, matching how Shopify scopes article URLs. Use a Blog: column on the row to tell the import which copy to update.
• Blog disambiguation - when an article Handle or Title matches more than one article, set Blog: ID, Blog: Handle, or Blog: Title on the row to pick the right one.
