Etsy listing importer is now live!

[SoniaHeartsHoops]

Hi Everyone -

We are excited to let you know that we have launched the listing importer for Etsy Wholesale!

When you go to your linesheet manager, you will now see a link to “Import listings from your Etsy shop”, directly below the List a Product button. The importer will ask you to set a wholesale price for the items you want to bring over from your Etsy Shop. Once you set the percentage, you can select the active handmade listings to import. Any items which are currently expired or in draft mode will not appear.

We hope this makes setting up your linesheet much easier. Thank you for the great feedback and suggestions on this tool. Please let us know if you have any issues!

Wow, pretty smooth! Wish I would've waited for this tool before posting all my listings!

[modernlinocut]

I went ahead and inported about 30 products in less than 2 minutes. It's quick, easy, and ran very smoothly. Thanks again!!!!!!!!!! (HUGE TIME SAVER!!)

The importer won't import a few of my products. Any tips? I tired importing them individually and still nothing.

Hi Jeanette - I just send you a convo requesting additional information so we can troubleshoot. Thanks!

I am having issues with the importer as well, it would not import two entire sections when I choose to import all, and I cannot import those items individually either now.

This feature is a great time-saver! I imported a bunch of listings from my Etsy shop without a hitch. Thank you!

I especially like the fact that you let us select individual items from multiple pages, and then click submit (rather than have to click submit on each page of listings before proceeding to the next page) -- I hope that makes sense.

One thought... I wonder if the importer should import listings and default them to the Draft state rather than immediately publish them. Here's my use case: In my Etsy Wholesale listings, I have simplified my product descriptions and removed some of the internal links that pointed to other sections of my Etsy retail shop. So, instead of having imported listings go live immediately (with the extraneous / non-applicable information), I would like to have the opportunity to edit them before publishing.

Not sure if other sellers would like this too. If it's just me, feel free to ignore! :-)

Thanks again!

Yes, MANvsGEORGE, I would love that, too.
I mean the draft listing, to change things before bein alive (especially since I have to change all my prices from Euro to US$)

[Necklush]

YES! :) thank you:)

Yahoo! Thanks so much!

Thanks again for this wonderful feature Etsy programming wizards! It's great......

Just to let you know, when we imported our pieces, the descriptions didn't quite transfer correctly. They seemed to ignore any paragraph indents in the orignal listing.... and just made everything look like one big paragraph. So we will have to go thru and correct each one. No biggie, because it is still much easier... but perhaps a code adjustment will help for the next people using the import from shop feature. Just want to let you know. Thanks again! - Troy and Stephano

Quick update on my previous post... it happened on some of my listings, but not all. It might be on the listings that I had that I started with a "-" dash. Not sure... Anyway I just wanted to update... Thanks again! - Troy

[Necklush]

This all worked very well, just had to chime back in! Thank you for implementing this, it made everything so easy! - Troy

Hello. For some reason it does not give me a list of my listings to select for import. The page says "select active handmade listings to import" but none of my etsy listings are visible.

How do I troubleshoot?
