Export brands when you need IDs, slugs, and image URLs in a spreadsheet. The export includes both the ID and the slug for every brand. Import creates new brands; Update changes existing ones.
Create imports
Create CSVs require: Name. Other columns are optional. Blank slugs are generated from the brand name. Existing brand names are skipped and reported.
| Name | Slug | Description | SEO Title | SEO Description | Image URL | Template Handle |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Acme | acme | Acme makes durable outdoor gear. | Acme Outdoor Gear | Shop Acme outdoor gear. | https://cdn.example.com/acme.png |
Update imports
Update CSVs use the ID column from an export. The ID identifies which brand each row updates. Blank fields keep the current value. If a row changes the slug, you can choose to create a redirect from the old URL.
To clear an optional value in Update mode, enter __CLEAR__ in Description, SEO Title, SEO Description, or Image URL. Entering it in Template Handle resets the brand to default_brand. Name and Slug cannot be cleared. The token has no special meaning in Create mode.
| ID | Name | Slug | Description | SEO Title | SEO Description | Image URL | Template Handle |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Images
Use Image URL to import a JPEG, PNG, GIF, or WebP image from a public http:// or https:// address. Preview checks the CSV value and shows which rows can proceed; the image itself is downloaded only after you start the job. During processing, Tringify checks the response, file size, image bytes, dimensions, malware scan, and your storage quota before saving it to the media library.
When several rows in the same job use the exact same Image URL, Tringify downloads and stores that image once and reuses the same media file for those rows. An exported Tringify Image URL also reuses the existing file when it still belongs to your store. Files from another store are never reused.
For an Update CSV, leave Image URL blank to keep the current image, keep or paste a URL to set the image, or enter __CLEAR__ to remove it.
The wizard shows the current image URL entry limit for one job. Every non-empty Image URL cell counts toward that limit, including repeated URLs and existing Tringify media URLs. Blank cells and __CLEAR__ do not count. If the file exceeds the limit, validation rejects the job before any brand or image is changed.
If an image cannot be downloaded or accepted, that row is reported as an error and its brand is not created or updated. Other valid rows continue. The completed job reports downloaded and failed media totals, and the audit log records one brand job result instead of one entry for every imported file.
