Import and export Shopify data with ease. Matrixify-compatible.

Available on Shopify App Store

Product imports and exports now support unit pricing, making it easier to display price-per-unit information for your customers.

🚀 What’s New
#

  • Unit price imports – add unit pricing data to products during import using the Variant Unit Price column.
  • Unit price exports – export existing unit pricing information from your products.
  • Format validation – automatically validates unit price data format and supported units during file analysis.

🔧 Improvements
#

  • Shopify API upgrade – updated to Shopify API version 2025-07 for enhanced unit pricing support.
  • Comprehensive unit support – supports 24 different units including weight (G, KG, LB), volume (L, ML, GAL), length (M, CM, IN), and area (M2, FT2) measurements.
  • Smart error handling – new error code PRD019 provides clear guidance when unit price format is incorrect.

📝 How It Works
#

Use the “Variant Unit Price” column in your import file with JSON format like:

{
  "quantityUnit": "G",
  "quantityValue": 12.0,
  "referenceUnit": "KG",
  "referenceValue": 1
}

This example shows pricing for 12 grams per 1 kilogram, helping customers understand the unit cost of your products.
