Modusify is a tool that allows you to make changes to multiple products simultaneously, making it easier and more efficient to manage your product data. We will walk you through the steps of exporting your product data to a CSV file, uploading it to Google Sheets for editing, and then importing the edited file back into Modusify.

Introduction
Before we dive into the details, let's first understand the importance of editing variant or parameter fields in bulk. When managing a large inventory of products, it can be time-consuming and tedious to manually update each individual product's variants. However, with the help of Modusify, you can automate this process and make changes to multiple products simultaneously.
How to Export Product Data in Modusify
The first step in editing variant or parameter fields in bulk is to export your product data from Modusify. To do this, navigate to Modusify and select the products that you wish to edit. Export the selected products by clicking on the "Export" button and choose the desired data for your export. It is recommended to include essential information such as the product ID and title, as well as any inventory-related fields that you want to edit.
Uploading the Exported File to Google Sheets
Once you have exported your product data, it's time to upload the exported file to Google Sheets for editing. Google Sheets provides a user-friendly interface and better compatibility with CSV files. Simply open Google Sheets, create a new sheet, and import the exported file. This process may take a few minutes, so be patient while Google Sheets processes the data.
Editing Variant or Parameter Fields in Bulk
Now that you have your product data in Google Sheets, you can proceed with editing the variant or parameter fields in bulk. In this section, we will cover different aspects of editing these fields, including adding variant fields, custom properties, specifying field types, and adding environmental fields.
Adding Variant Fields
To add variant fields, simply enter the desired values for each variant in the corresponding row. For example, if you want to specify the color of each variant, enter the color value in the designated field for each row. This allows you to update variant fields in bulk quickly and easily.
Adding Custom Properties
If you want to add custom properties to your variants, you can do so by following a specific format. Start by entering "Battlefield," followed by a colon, and then the name of the custom property. For instance, if you are adding a custom property for materials, you would enter "Battlefield: Materials" in the designated field.
Specifying Field Types
When editing fields in bulk, it is crucial to specify the field types correctly. You can specify the field type by wrapping it in square brackets. For example, if you want a single-line text field, you would enter "[text]" as the field type. Refer to the Modusify documentation for a comprehensive list of available field types.
Adding Environmental Fields
If you want to add environmental fields to your variants, you need to include the keyword "variant" before the field name. For example, if you want to add an environmental field named "Size," you would enter "variant.Size" in the designated field. This allows you to specify variant-specific information in bulk.
Importing the Edited File back to Modusify
Once you have finished editing the variant or parameter fields in Google Sheets, it's time to import the edited file back into Modusify. In Modusify, navigate to the product editing page and click on the "Import" button. Choose the edited file from your computer and proceed with the import. It is advisable to run a simulation before importing to ensure that the changes will be applied correctly.
Verifying the Imported Data
After importing the edited file into Modusify, it is essential to verify that the imported data accurately reflects the changes made in Google Sheets. Navigate to the product editing page and review the updated variant or parameter fields. Ensure that all the desired changes have been applied correctly and that the product data is consistent with your editing in Google Sheets.
Conclusion
Editing variant or parameter fields in bulk can significantly streamline the process of managing product data. By utilizing Modusify's export and import functionalities, along with the power of Google Sheets, you can easily make changes to multiple products simultaneously. This saves you time and effort, allowing you to focus on other essential aspects of your business. Experiment with the steps outlined in this tutorial and discover how Modusify can simplify your product data management process.
