The file must contain at least:

  • Brand
  • Category
  • Description
  • At least one main image

You can also include:

  • Up to 8 additional images.
  • Logistics data such as height, depth or weight.
Please note: if you do not have reliable logistics data, leave these fields blank unless they are mandatory for the product or category.

For guidance on preparing titles, descriptions, images, identifiers and attributes, see Creating a perfect product sheet.

Will any product include enriched A+ content?
Prepare the HTML and images in advance by following How to add enriched content (A+) to a product page. When importing the products, tell the Cataloguing team which references contain this content.

  2. Select Manual mapping assistant in the right-hand panel.

Please note: choose the category that actually corresponds to the product. The selected category determines which attributes you need to map next.
4️⃣ Map the attributes

Match the fields in your file to the attributes required by the Marketplace.

  • The attributes for the category appear on the left.
  • The fields from your file appear on the right.
  • Map each mandatory attribute to the field containing that information.
  • Always map the EAN.

5️⃣ Map the values

Match the values in your file to the values recognised by the Marketplace, such as brand, style or colour.

  • Use the search field to find the corresponding value.
  • Check especially that the brand already exists in the system.
  • Map each value in your file to its equivalent.
If a brand is not available: contact your account manager to request its creation before continuing.

6️⃣ Review and import the products

Before completing the import, Mirakl displays a summary of the mapping.

  2. Check any possible errors or products that may be rejected.
  3. If everything is correct, select Import my products.
Final review before importing products
Important: Mirakl saves your mappings so you can reuse them for future imports. You only need to configure them again if you delete them or need to change them.
7️⃣ Check the result

Once the import has been submitted, open Product import monitoring to check the result.

Processing may take a few minutes. If an error occurs, select View details to see the reason and correct it.
