Changelog

June 23, 2025


Product imports now work smarter with your existing files, reducing upload times and avoiding duplicates.

πŸš€ What’s New

  • Existing file lookup – reference uploaded files by filename instead of full URLs during product imports.
  • Automatic file attachment – existing files are automatically linked to products without re-uploading.

πŸ”§ Improvements

  • Faster imports – skip uploading files that already exist in your Shopify store.
  • Flexible URL splitting – media URLs can now be separated by semicolons or commas in any format.
  • Better error handling – gracefully handles missing files without breaking the import process.

πŸ“ How It Works

When importing products, you can now use just the filename (like photo.jpg) in the Image Src field instead of the full URL. The system will automatically find and attach the existing file from your Shopify store, avoiding duplicate uploads and speeding up your imports.
