There may be cases where you wish to download content from managed catalogs. Since EvolutionX does not provide specific exports for data owned by wholesales or other data providers of managed content you have to use other features withing the platform to obtain downloadable files for the content.

you can use the export for downloading a feed to csv documented here.

Or you can use another method of a combination of exports and imports to create a customized download of products.

  1. Create a Catalog Container.

  2. Assign the managed catalog you wish to to obtain an export to this container.

  3. Set the Who's this for to Accounts while not assigning any accounts.

It will look similar to this.

Once you have the container build click save. open the container, click on the export menu and choose Catalog Products in Container from the export menu.

Now that you have a file containing the SKU, Supplier ID and Catalog ID you can use this to create a custom catalog to import the data into.

  1. Create a new Available Catalog

  2. Use the import template and populate it with the SKU, Supplier ID and Catalog ID from the Products in Container export.

  3. You will also need to populate the Autoupdate Column with Y, Delete Record Column with N and then import.

  4. Once the import is compete open the new available catalog you just imported the file to and run the export. When exported every other column that was empty on your import will be populated with the data from the catalog.
