Uploading
Single File Upload
Single File Upload lets you add one product at a time using either a product image or a PDF document (such as a data sheet, specification sheet, or brochure).
When to Use
Single File Upload is ideal for:
- Adding individual new products
- Uploading a product PDF where no image is available
- Testing content generation
- Quick product additions
- Updating an existing product with a PDF
For bulk uploads, consider ZIP Upload or Spreadsheet Import.
Upload Process
Step 1: Enter Product ID
- Go to Add Products
- Select Single File Upload
- Enter the Product ID
- Use your SKU or product code
- This must be unique
- Avoid special characters
Step 2: Upload Your File
- Click the upload area or drag and drop
- Select your product image or PDF
- Supported image formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, BMP, SVG
- PDF: Any standard PDF document
Step 3: Submit

PDF Uploads
When you upload a PDF:
- The first page is used as the product’s primary image in the product grid
- The full PDF (all pages) is read by the AI to generate product content

- Multiple pages are all used for AI content generation — only the first page is used for the thumbnail
PDF uploads are ideal for:
