Importing Collections in Shopify
Since Shopify doesn't natively support collection imports through the admin interface, you'll need to use the Shopify API or a third-party app. Here's a general approach:
Shopify API:
- Use the Shopify Admin API to create collections programmatically.
- You'll need to write a script or use an app that can send POST requests to Shopify with your new collection details.
Third-Party Apps:
- Look for apps in the Shopify App Store that offer data import functionality, including collections.
- Follow the app's instructions to upload your collection data, often through a CSV file.
Manual Upload:
- Alternatively, you can manually create collections and assign products to them in the Shopify admin.
Note: Interacting with the Shopify API or using third-party apps typically requires a certain level of technical expertise.
