There are lots of reason you may want to download a set of products from your store. The CSV Product Feed allows you to do just that. In combination with product groups you can export all or just a subset of your products.
Overview
The process goes like this. First, we defined what products we want to export using the product group rules. Then we use that product group to create the feed. The feed is based off of catalogs in your Global Catalog Container(s). Read more on Catalog Container here.
Step 1 : Create a new product group
Create a product group. Use the rules or import items that you would like to have exported.

Imorting items is one of the easiest ways to manage a list of varied products. Just click on 'import items' and you'll be presented with a downloadble template to help you get these items in super quick!
Step 2 : Now create your feed
Now that you have your product group created you can create a new feed using that product group.
π Important: The feed might take a few minutes to process. So, grab a coffee and comeback a little later to see the output on the feeds page. Once there, you can click to download it.
