Updating Magento Attributes in Bulk.
Navigate Inventory > Import Product Info > Import Magento Attributes. Download template populate and import.
- Use the attribute_code to fill in the Attribute Name column, or use the numerical ID to fill in the AttributeID column. This ensures that the correct attribute column is being updated (as two display names are sometime identical).
