productImportCreate

Requires permission products:import:stage.

Creates a product import from a staged CSV or Excel file (purpose PRODUCT_IMPORT). Then call productImportStage, read productImportPreview, and call productImportApprove. An import writes no stock. Image columns must hold the app's own PRODUCT_IMAGE staged keys; a row with a URL is an error.

Errors: a failed call returns a GraphQL errors entry, not a field on the result, and data may be null or partial. Read the entry's extensions.code and message; every shape and code is in the Error reference.

Example:

GraphQL

mutation ProductImportCreate($input: ProductImportCreateInput!) {
  productImportCreate(input: $input) {
    id
    status
    createdAt
    chunkCheckpoint
    createCount
    errorRows
    progress {
      done
      heartbeatAt
      imagesFailed
      phase
      total
    }
  }
}

cURL

curl -X POST "https://<api-host>/graphql" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN" \
