Import / export product and pricing data using XML

Overview

2Checkout's data portability capabilities enable you to import and export products using the XML (Extensible Markup Language) file format.

Availability

Import/Export as XML is available for all Active and Inactive products.

Import / export XML file syntax

Use UTF-8 character encoding.

Ensure the import file adheres to the XML 1.0 specification syntax rules.

1. XML declaration: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

2. <Export></Export> is the root element for the export and the import file.

3. XML elements feature start and closing tags, as long as there's information to be imported or exported: <Products> INFO </Products>. When no data is included or available, a single tag is sufficient: <AdditionalField/>.

4. XML tags are case sensitive. Use <Products> INFO </Products> and not <Products> INFO </products>.

5. XML attribute values must be quoted.

6. Use this syntax <!-- This is a comment --> for comments in XML.

7. White-spaces are preserved.
