Import reviews

Before you begin, download a CSV file of your review data from the review service you'd like to migrate from. Most review services allow you to export your data to a CSV file.

Note

The CSV importer should work automatically for popular review services like Yotpo, however, for other services you might need to format your CSV file to match the format of this example CSV file. Remove the example product from the CSV template, or you will see an error when you import the CSV file.
