Product Attribute Import / Export

Manage Magento product attributes with a dependable CSV workflow

Product Attribute Import/Export 1.0.3 exports user-defined product attribute definitions to CSV. Edit supported labels, required and unique flags, storefront/search/listing/grid settings, defaults and select or multiselect options in a spreadsheet, then import. Existing attribute_code values update user-defined attributes; a new lowercase code creates one. Magento system attributes are never modified.

• Dropdown options: separate option labels with a pipe character. New option labels are appended to existing select or multiselect attributes; existing options are not renamed or removed.
• Group placement: an unedited exported CSV preserves existing attribute-set groups. New attributes are global scope and go into the Default set unless a set is specified. Existing attributes can be added to a named set/group when both fields are explicitly supplied.
• Validated upload: the Admin action requires a real .csv upload of up to 10 MB and checks its detected MIME type. Empty or duplicate headers and rows with an incorrect column count reject the whole file before changes. Individual data errors are reported per row; other valid rows may still apply.
• Product export: optionally flatten chosen custom attributes into separate columns instead of leaving them only in additional_attributes.
• Admin permissions: import and export have separate ACL resources. No external service or AgenticEcom Core is required.

How to use it

1. Open System > Data Transfer > Attribute Export / Import in Magento Admin and download the CSV.
2. Edit supported columns and add rows for new attributes. Keep headers and each row's column count intact.
3. Import a representative CSV on staging, review row messages and catalogue behaviour, then repeat on a backed-up production store.

The import does not change an existing attribute's input type, scope or apply_to setting. It does not delete options. A data error does not roll back other valid rows, so review the import results carefully.

Compatibility and guide

The exact 1.0.2 ZIP was installed through Composer, upgraded, compiled, statically deployed and exercised on Magento Open Source 2.4.9 / PHP 8.5.10; PHP 8.4 syntax was checked. Other editions, versions and custom themes need separate qualification. Read the Product Attribute Import/Export user guide for CSV fields and configuration.

Purchase and support

A one-time purchase includes 12 months of updates and support. Renewal is optional and never billed automatically.

Frequently asked questions

Can I update an existing attribute's input type?

No. Export shows the input type, but the importer does not change it for existing attributes. New attributes use the type specified in the CSV.

Does importing an exported file move attribute groups?

No. The export leaves attribute_group blank, so an ordinary round trip preserves group placement. Supply both set and group explicitly to add an existing attribute to a named group.

What if a CSV row is malformed?

The entire file is rejected before changes if any row has the wrong number of columns. Data errors in otherwise well-formed rows are reported individually; other valid rows may apply.
