We’ve spent many hours scratching our heads at Impression HQ, but have found a great solution that fits well with our workflow. When it comes to uploading data into Magento, there are a few options beside premium plugins that have varying levels of success and difficulty.&nbsp;These are;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"#import\">Magento Import\u002FExport via CSV\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"#dataflow\">Magento Dataflow &#8211; Profiles\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"#magmi\">Magmi &#8211; Magento Mass Importer\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n\u003Ch3 id=\"import\">Magento Import\u002FExport via CSV\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Initially, for product imports, the standard importer works very well. You&#8217;re able to import every piece of product data that you require, so long as the spreadsheet is setup correctly and you have already done the work on the website to set up your configuration, categories and attribute sets. Magento have provided \u003Ca rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.magentocommerce.com\u002Fknowledge-base\u002Fentry\u002Fworking-with-product-csv-files\">detailed instruction on this page\u003C\u002Fa> for users looking to get started with importing products into Magento. The problem appears when it comes to uploading images. Various sources online (plus our experience!) indicate issues around images appearing exclusively on the store view, or the admin panel, or not at all. We&#8217;re assuming you&#8217;ve already moved your files via FTP to the \u003Ccode>media\u002Fimport\u003C\u002Fcode>&nbsp;directory before getting started.

In this method, keep everything the same, but do not add images to the first spreadsheet; instead, create a new one that contains the product&#8217;s SKU and image location. Magento allows each product to have a number of images, at different sizes &#8211; standard, &#8216;small&#8217; and &#8216;thumbnail&#8217;.
