What is data import?

Data import allows you to upload (import) data from an external source to your Price2Spy account. Doing this provides you access to comprehensive (and customizable) reports that include both your own and competitors’ product data. These reports in turn will enable you to make more precise and timely pricing decisions.

BONUS STEP

Set the frequency for imported products

When the import is performed, there is a Price check frequency setting in Step 2 where the frequency for new products should be set. It uses the same logic that is implemented on Add Product page.
