How to add an item from a file
Enter the product data into a special Excel template and upload it to the Market.
Download the template
-
Open the section Products → Catalog.
-
Press the button Upload products → A lot of goods.
-
Select and download the desired template:
- All products at once — to download products of different categories. There will be general characteristics in this file, and additional category characteristics can be added later.
- By category — to upload products from the same category or a group of several similar categories in the same template. You can immediately add both basic and additional characteristics for each category to this file.
Fill out the template
First of all, look at the sheet Instruction manual — it explains in detail how to handle the file.
The goods must be indicated on the sheet List of products. The first line has already been filled in — this is a sample. Replace it with your first product.
Required fields are highlighted in red.
All fields are described in detail on the sheet Description of fields — look there if necessary. There are also brief memos above some columns, and some have tooltips — they are marked with red triangles. Move the mouse over such a triangle to read the hint.

The rules for filling are described on the sheet Requirements — look there if necessary. There are also brief memos above some columns, and some have tooltips — they are marked with red triangles. Move the mouse over such a triangle to read the hint.
Important
- Do not change anything in the file structure: do not move columns, rename or swap sheets, do not fill in two columns on the left, do not change the format of cells.
- Do not use the tab character and line break inside the cell.
After filling out the table, save the file. If the completed file weighs more than 100 MB, split it into several.
Upload the file to the Market
-
Open the section Products → Catalog.
-
Press the button Upload products.
-
Upload the file in the same block where you downloaded the template: All products at once or By category.
For the "All products at once" template, run a technical check
Press the button Check the file.
The market will launch a technical check of the file — at this stage, it checks whether all the required fields are filled in, whether the data is everywhere in the right format, whether the file structure has been changed. If there are errors or omissions in the file, the Market will offer to download a list of them.
Click Download the list of errors fix the errors and upload the file again.
If everything is fine with the file or there are not many errors, you can add products to the catalog.
Tip
It is always better to download the list of errors immediately, if there is one, and fix everything before adding products to the catalog. Due to errors, the product may not get on display.
-
Click Download.
Your products have been sent for moderation and will appear in the catalog after a while. You can understand that the check is over by the status of the product. Instructions are in the article How to view product statuses.
В Excel они называются примечаниями.
