So I am new to wix code and javascript, however i do have some C++/VB/PHP experience so i I am sure ill manage. However I have NO FREAKING clue how to import my products into the Products table in wix stores. I figured out how to import a json into a non store table but when i try
wixData.insert(collection, item) OR
wixData.query(collection)
where collection = Stores/Products I get nothing. I get an error if i type Stores/Productswrongname, so I know I am at least referencing the table correctly.
where collection = myOtherTable everything works fine
Hey
That is because Stores/Products is read only so you can’t import it using the Data Collection. I think that if you go into the store admin dashboard there is a IMPORT PRODUCTS feature inside that. I think the data collections will be writeable in some future but have no idea on when. This is a feature request so I hope they are working on that.
well that sucks. also I do not have that option, I was told its an old feature that is no longer supported for some reason. I have over 9000 UNIQUE Products that have changing quantitys daily from my Brick and mortor storefront
If you want daily updates on that amount of products I would say that Wix Stores is not for you. They create a lot of features but this auto update things needed by people like you is not present. I would try to connect with the Wix Stores team and speak with them if this is on their road map first. Otherwise you will have to drop Wix Stores and maybe hook up a Shopify solution.
@andreas-kviby I looked at shopify and it does not support some of the features i need either. Like product categories and attributes. I sell Second Hand Video Games by the way
@gregg of course they have support for that, but it requires some work to set it up, I like Steves suggestion though it will require coding. If you need help coding go to Wix Arena or sites like Fiverr.
