Can collection info be brought into into store info for products?

I am building all my collections and I was wondering if I have to manually rebuild all this info as a store product or is there a way to pull all that info into the store product section.

Thanks
James

make sure that Wix App Collections enabled here, so the information from Stores will be displayed in datasets: https://support.wix.com/en/article/content-manager-working-with-wix-app-collections#how-do-wix-app-collections-work

Thanks Andrew

It doesn’t look like there is any easy way to do this as I tried exporting a collection in csv file than imported in product store and all kinds of errors came up. It would probably be faster for me to add all the products individually that edit CSV file to make it all work.

kind of disappointing for a export to a import on editor x that it didn’t just do it without all the errors. This is my first go with a csv file so maybe its not as bad as I think?

Not sure maybe I would of been better building everything in the store first.

I do have a lot of products that I have built as a collection first.

Here is what one of my csv looks like

so this could be done in 2 steps:

1st step: you can try import csv to your stores:

2nd step: you can use apps collection
so the information from the description field will be transformed to relevant column in the dataset:

Thanks Andrew! Do you know how much editing would be needed to make the csv file work is it editing everything or just a bit to make it work.

few hours, I worked with Store collections long time ago, as I can see nothing changeg in flow
so with correct file and fields format it should not take long
