How to Export WooCommerce Products to CSV or XML

To export your products, go to WP All Export › New Export and select WooCommerce Products. Next, drag and drop the elements on the right to build your CSV or XML export file. Then, run the export to create your product's export.

Step 1:  Select WooCommerce Products

Step 2: Customise Your WooCommerce Products Export File

All data related to your WooCommerce Products is in Available Data section. Drag and drop data elements from right to left to customize your export file.

This data is divided into the following sections: Standard, Product Data, Media, Taxonomies, Custom Fields, and Other.

Standard

Basic WooCommerce Product data is in Available Data › Standard:

  • ID: The post ID, a unique number given to every post in WordPress.
  • Title: The title or name of the product.
  • Content: A description of the product.
  • Short Description: Similar to the excerpt for posts, usually a summary of the content section.
  • Date: The date the product was published, in y-m-d.
  • Post Type: The post type being exported, which is product in this case.
  • Permalink: The URL of the product.
  • Parent Product ID: Variable products are attached to a parent product, and this exports the post ID of that parent product. A 0 is exported for products without a parent.

Product Data

More detailed WooCommerce Product data is in Available Data › Product Data:

  • Sku: A product code used to reference and differentiate products.

If your product has attributes like size or color, they will be automatically detected and added to the Attributes section, at the bottom of Product Data.
