trying to figure out how to upload the product videos in bulk. 

In the Products/Media interface there is an "Add from URL" button that embeds YouTube and Vimeo videos. (It doesn't seem to go through CDN)

When I export to .csv I don't see any relevant field. Seems like some secret metafield.

Am I missing anything?

 

How to upload video URLs in bulk?

Thanks

Hi @avagyan,

Yes, when you export products with csv, it will not include video and model. 

You can just install the app for it, refer: https://apps.shopify.com/mega-image-exporter or https://apps.shopify.com/excel-export-import

You can also contact shopify directly for support: https://help.shopify.com/en/questions#/contact
Hope it helps!

I have matrixify already.. Ok, maybe I'm doing something wrong, and it doesn't export. I need to import anyway, what's the column name for the vimeo or youtube video link?

I know, I did, it's not supported at the moment in Matrixify

Since you're promoting an app yourself, do you happen to know if it's supported in app API?

Hi @LitExtension 

With your migration experience, I wonder what you do when moving videos. Do you have a shortcut?

 

Vimeo has a "social share", but it doesn't work in bulk, either.

Hi did you figure out a solution to this? I am still searching.  I have over 400 product videos.
