At the moment, I’m facing an issue to migrate from Magento to Shopify using PIM system(Product Inventory Management).
My client had already exported the data from their PIM system. So the format of this data is different.
For instance, there are several things missing like Price and images.
Can you tell me how difficult this will be to reorganize to import?
Hi @ten12star I would recommend you use the magento API to pull the data from your magento and push to shopify both using the API. I do have a script for that so if you need help to migrate your entire Magento data into Shopify let me know.
Which PIM are you using? some solutions have connectors so that you could integrate your PIM to shopify directly and don’t worry about Magento.
Migrating from Magento to Shopify via a PIM system can get messy, especially if your export is missing stuff like prices or images. The tricky part is reorganising the data so it fits Shopify’s format. You’ll probably need to map fields correctly and fill in any gaps manually or with some scripts. UnoPIM can make this way easier, helping automate part of the process and reducing errors. Definitely doable, just needs some planning!
It also depends on the export from your PIM - how well structured and complete it is. If the product titles, SKUs, and variants are the same, you can convert the file into Shopify’s CSV template. Prices and images can be added manually or later by bulk import for missing ones. Look for a little cleanup and mapping prior to import.
