eBay: File Exchange – Advanced Template

You can export your Shopify Products into the eBay “File Exchange – Advanced Template” file format.

When the Matrixify app is selecting data from your Shopify store to insert into the columns, it is able to take additional data from your Tags or Metafields.

Read each of the columns below to find out what values are taken from which Shopify fields, and how you can pass values from your Tags or Metafields to set specific values.

This format can only be exported.
