How do I manage Channel Attributes?

Here is a guide to managing Channel Attributes in the PIM Module.

To view all Channel Attributes, in PIM, go to Settings > Products > Channel Attributes. Here you will see each and every channel attribute for the channels you sell on. These are created when importing channel templates during Channel Integration. They can also be created manually.

Note: During Channel Integration, the channel will have a list of attributes in a template that you will be able to download and then import here. Typically, this is done by our integration team.

To manually create an attribute, click Add.

Note: Even if you only have 50 results out of the full number of attributes showing, this will export all results, not just the top 50. However, if you apply filters, only the results within the filtered parameters will export.
