- CSV/XLSX admission, field precedence, and fail-closed routing contracts were verified; current UI examples should use non-customer fixture data.
What this does
Match rows to files, supply listing fields, and route each artwork to an exact store and product line.
Before you begin
- Download the current CSV or XLSX template from Copy and Data.
- Use exact, unique artwork filenames and existing store/line names.
What changes outside ArtDrop
Uploading a sheet stores copy and routing instructions. When uploaded with artwork in a normal drop, those instructions can cause real publication to the named destination.
Steps
-
Start from the template
Keep the filename column and fill only supported fields: title, description, SEO title/description, alt text, tags, store, and line.
-
Match filenames exactly
Use the uploaded artwork name including extension. Avoid duplicate rows and spreadsheet auto-formatting that changes names or IDs.
-
Stamp the destination
Use the exact store and line labels. Store and line resolve independently; any unknown value fails the drop instead of silently using the primary store.
-
Upload together
Drop the sheet with its artwork files. Up to four sheets can be admitted in one upload; the first artwork group receives shared sheet files where applicable.
Expected result
Copy Log shows supplied values, and each accepted artwork carries the intended store/line stamp into processing.
Limits and non-goals
- Each CSV/XLSX sheet is limited to 2 MiB; use at most four per upload.
- A JSON sidecar overrides conflicting sheet values for its matching image.
Troubleshooting
- For an unknown store/line error, correct the spelling or create the destination; do not remove the route and hope for a fallback.
- For a missing row match, compare the literal filename and extension.
How to undo or clean up
Correct the sheet and run a new controlled drop. A corrected sheet does not edit an external product already created.
