Choose Entity Type and export format<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">First, go to &#8216;System&#8217; on the Admin sidebar, then navigate to Data Transfer \u2192 Export. From here, you can choose your Entity Type from the following options:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Products<\/li>\n<li>Advanced Pricing<\/li>\n<li>Customers Main File<\/li>\n<li>Customer Finances<\/li>\n<li>Stock Sources<\/li>\n<li>Customer Addresses<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_77733\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77733\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77733\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/step1-5.webp\" alt=\"magento-product-export-step-1\" width=\"1000\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/step1-5.webp 1000w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/step1-5-300x76.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/step1-5-768x194.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-77733\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Decide your Magento export database, Entity type, and export format.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You may enable the &#8216;Fields Enclosure&#8217; option if your Magento 2 export database includes special characters. This wraps those characters in an escape sequence so they are not misread during the transfer. As for the &#8216;Export File Format&#8217;, CSV is the only built-in option, so simply keep it as is.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Step 2. Customize Entity attributes<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In most cases, the &#8216;Entity attributes&#8217; section will display attributes alphabetically (e.g., <em>Activity &gt; Category Gear &gt; Categories &gt; Climate &gt; Collar<\/em>,&#8230;). You can search, sort, and filter the attributes as needed:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>To export only specific data, enter the necessary values in the &#8216;Filter&#8217; column for each attribute. (e.g., only export Warm and Sunny values in the Climate attribute).<\/li>\n<li>To exclude particular attributes from the export, check the &#8216;Exclude&#8217; box next to those attributes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_77732\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77732\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77732\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ste2.webp\" alt=\"magento-product-export-step-2\" width=\"1000\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ste2.webp 1000w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ste2-300x179.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ste2-768x457.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-77732\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Magento 2 export product attributes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Step 3.

The export request is sent to the message queue, then the file is processed and saved in the var\/export\/ directory (provided your cron job is active). When it is ready, the file appears in the list at the bottom of the Export page, where you can download it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_77731\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77731\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77731\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/step3-3.webp\" alt=\"magento-product-export-step-3\" width=\"1000\" height=\"144\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/step3-3.webp 1000w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/step3-3-300x43.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/step3-3-768x111.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-77731\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Your Magento export products CSV file will be processed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And that&#8217;s it!

Nevertheless, we understand that unexpected technical issues can still pop up along the way! Therefore, in this section, we&#8217;ll discuss some of the most common problems you might face and how to handle them.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Exported products .csv file does not appear<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This issue is linked to a known export bug that first appeared in version 2.3.2 and occurs when the &#8220;Add Secret Key to URLs&#8221; option is enabled. To resolve it, you can disable this option by following these steps:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Go to Stores \u2192 Configuration \u2192 Advanced \u2192 Admin \u2192 Security in the Admin panel.<\/li>\n<li>Change the &#8216;Add Secret Key to URLs&#8217; setting to No, then click &#8216;Save Config&#8217; to save the changes.<\/li>\n<li>Clear the cache by navigating to System \u2192 Tools \u2192 Cache Management or by running the command bin\/magento cache:clean.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_77735\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77735\" style=\"width: 777px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77735\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1-2.webp\" alt=\"magento-export-troubleshooting-problem-1\" width=\"777\" height=\"518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1-2.webp 777w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1-2-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1-2-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 777px) 100vw, 777px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-77735\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Change the &#8216;Add Secret Key to URLs&#8217; setting to No<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If that doesn&#8217;t work, then another alternative is to manually run the export consumer: <em>bin\/magento queue:consumers:start exportProcessor<\/em>. Once the consumer has processed the request, your Magento 2 export products CSV file should appear in the grid. To avoid repeating this step, make sure this consumer runs regularly through your cron jobs.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Export issues on older Adobe Commerce versions<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If your store still runs Adobe Commerce 2.3.0 to 2.4.1, you may run into two other well-known export bugs. Adobe has released a quality patch for each, which you can apply with the Quality Patches Tool (QPT):<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>MDVA-31168 (requires QPT 1.0.10):<\/strong> The product export file does not show in Admin, and the file saved on the server only contains the header row instead of your products.<\/li>\n<li><strong>MDVA-31242 (requires QPT 1.0.8):<\/strong> On B2B stores, filtering the Sales \u2192 Orders grid by the Company Name column and exporting it to CSV leads to a blank error page.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To check the patch status, run <em>.\/vendor\/bin\/magento-patches status<\/em>. Then, apply the patch you need with the following command, replacing MDVA-31168 with MDVA-31242 if necessary:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>.\/vendor\/bin\/magento-patches apply MDVA-31168<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After applying the patch, don&#8217;t forget to clear the cache so the changes can take effect:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>.\/bin\/magento cache:clean<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Note that both issues have been fixed since version 2.4.2. So if you are on a newer release like Magento 2.4.9, you don&#8217;t need these patches. Instead, check your cron jobs and the export consumer as explained above.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Import and export paths blocked<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sometimes, your Magento product export might fail if the folder and file permissions aren&#8217;t correctly set up. You won&#8217;t be able to perform the necessary export actions on the file systems! Keep in mind that Magento needs write access to the var\/ directory, where export files are stored.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But no worries, as adjusting these permissions in cPanel is a breeze. Simply right-click on the folder, then select the &#8216;Change permissions&#8217; option in the pop-up menu.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_77736\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77736\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77736\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-2.webp\" alt=\"magento-export-troubleshooting-problem-2\" width=\"1024\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-2.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-2-300x134.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/4-2-768x342.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-77736\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Change the permissions for the chosen file or folder<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Text values exceeding the character limit<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you plan to re-import the exported file, long text values can cause errors during the import process. Magento checks each value against the attribute type: text field attributes (such as product name, URL key, or meta title) accept up to 255 characters, while text area attributes like the description and short description accept up to about 65,000 characters. Values over the limit trigger an &#8220;exceeded max length&#8221; error.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To prevent this, keep text field values within 255 characters. Note that spaces between words also count toward this character limit. As for the &#8220;short description&#8221;, it is only meant to be a brief teaser for your main product page, so we still recommend keeping it short and phrasing it carefully.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_77737\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77737\" style=\"width: 1467px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77737\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-1.webp\" alt=\"magento-export-troubleshooting-problem-3\" width=\"1467\" height=\"848\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-1.webp 1467w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-1-300x173.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-1-1024x592.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-1-768x444.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1467px) 100vw, 1467px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-77737\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Keep text values within the attribute&#8217;s character limit<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Pro Tip:<\/strong> If you are exporting data because you plan to move your store to Shopify, a manual CSV export might not cut it.

Accidental deletion or data corruption (or any other unexpected errors) might occur during this process. Hence, a recent backup ensures you can restore your store to its previous state if something goes wrong.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can always back up your Magento database through your hosting provider&#8217;s control panel or using command-line tools like &#8216;mysqldump&#8217; for MySQL databases. Note that Magento&#8217;s old built-in backup tool has been deprecated and is disabled by default, so a hosting snapshot or a database dump is the safer choice.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Test with a small data set first<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sometimes, running a full Magento product export at once might lead to unexpected issues or incorrect data in the final CSV file &#8211; which is all the more likely if this is your first-ever Magento export. Hence, we suggest testing with a small subset to confirm that the export settings, filters, and attribute selections are correctly configured.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For example, in the Entity attributes section, you may apply filters by SKU or product ID to export only a specific category or a small group of products. After that, review the CSV file to ensure everything looks correct before proceeding with the full export.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Check and clean up data before exporting<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From our experience, dirty\/inconsistent data often leads to huge problems after a Magento product export if you plan to re-import the data later. Cases in point: missing attributes, incorrect values, duplicate entries, and more.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">That&#8217;s why a pre-import review is very important. You should double-check everything and fix all the incorrectly-categorized products or missing fields if necessary. In case you&#8217;re in a hurry, consider using Magento&#8217;s &#8216;Update attributes&#8217; bulk action (Catalog \u2192 Products \u2192 Actions) to clean up data across multiple products at once.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">3 Recommended Tools for Advanced Magento Product Export<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition to the standard product export steps we just demonstrated, there are also advanced apps that can streamline the process even further!

With it, you can:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Import and export all types of products in your Magento store using a CSV file<\/li>\n<li>Update or import products for specific fields<\/li>\n<li>Update product descriptions, images, prices, and stock levels<\/li>\n<li>Move products from an older version of your Magento store (e.g., Magento 1) into Magento 2 (this requires Magebees&#8217; companion Magento 1 extension).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">LitExtension<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_77740\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77740\" style=\"width: 1323px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-77740\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/app3.webp\" alt=\"litextension-homepage\" width=\"1323\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/app3.webp 1323w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/app3-300x113.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/app3-1024x386.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/app3-768x290.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1323px) 100vw, 1323px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-77740\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">LitExtension services<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the two Magento product export extensions mentioned above prove incredibly helpful, they are only designed for Magento 2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">That means if you plan to import your products to a different platform from Magento (like Shopify), those extensions won\u2019t do! You\u2019ll end up spending a lot of time adjusting your export files to the new platform\u2019s requirements. And without prior experience, technical challenges during this process will be inevitable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Therefore, a much better alternative would be to use migration services from <a href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>LitExtension, the #1 eCommerce Migration Tool<\/strong><\/a> in the field with 15+ years of experience and 300,000+ migrations completed. Products aside, you can also transfer customers, orders, coupons, CMS pages, blog posts, and many other data types to your new store &#8211; a much more inclusive option than Amasty or Magebees!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Currently, there are two LitExtension packages for you to choose from:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Automated Migration (from $29):<\/strong> This package is ideal if you prefer to handle the migration yourself. The process is simple: set up your current store (Magento) as the source cart and the new platform as the target cart, select the data you want to transfer, and start the migration! We also offer a free demo (up to 20 entities of each data type) so you can try out the process before fully committing. If your store has fewer than 100 entities, the full migration is completely free.<\/li>\n<li><strong>All-in-One Migration (from $129, popular):<\/strong> For those who want a stress-free, cost-saving migration with little to no downtime, an all-in-one service is clearly the best choice. Just share your requirements with us, and a dedicated Personal Assistant will manage the entire migration process for you once you make your payment! Any additional options that usually require extra fees (e.g., Strip HTML tags, 301 redirects,&#8230;) will be covered at zero cost, along with 2 free re-migrations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Both packages are one-time payments, with no monthly subscription.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Magento 2 Export Products: FAQs<\/h2>\n<div class=\"faq faq-single-post\">\n<details open=\"\">\n<summary>How do I export a product from Magento?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"content\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To export data, go to the Admin sidebar and click on System \u2192 Data Transfer \u2192 Export.
