Overview
The article covers the attributes you can set for a Walmart product in Sellercloud.
Update Product’s Attributes
You can update Walmart Marketplace attributes manually or in bulk.
Manually
- Go to Catalog > Manage Catalog > Open a product.
- Toolbox > Walmart Marketplace > Listing Details panel > Attributes.
- If the product has no set Walmart Parent Category or Child Category, you must select these first. Read more about Walmart categories here.
- Next, the list of attributes will appear. Not all are required, and they vary based on category.
- When you are ready, click Finish.
In Bulk
You can bulk-update products with Walmart attributes using a file import:
- Go to Catalog > Import Product Info > Import Walmart Marketplace Attributes.
- Download the template.
- Populate the template columns. See the description of the template headers in the section below. The Category is required because attributes are category-specific; read more about Walmart categories.
- Upload and Import the template to Sellercloud.
Additionally, if categories are already selected on products, you can export a file with all relevant information this way:
- Catalog > Manage Catalog > Select SKU(s) > Action menu > Export Channel Info > Select Channel Attributes > Export
- Open the queued job and download the file.
Walmart Attributes Template Headers
The downloaded template’s headers are defined as follows:
- Product ID — SKU of the product as shown in Sellercloud.
- Walmart API ParentCategory — Walmart parent category.
- Walmart API ChildCategory — Walmart child category.
- Attribute Name — Name of the attribute (example: color, size).
- Attribute Value — Value corresponding to the AttributeName (example: red, Medium).
- Parent Node — The category node that the attribute comes from.
Walmart Marketplace requires different attributes on the products, depending on their category.
Update a single product’s attributes
You can manually update Walmart Marketplace attributes from the product’s Walmart Marketplace properties (red X appears if required attributes are missing):

- Click the Manage Attributes link.
- If the product has no Walmart Parent Category and Child Category set, you must select these first; read more about Walmart categories. The list of attributes will now appear. Not all are required, and they vary based on the category.
Bulk-import attributes
You can bulk-update products with Walmart attributes using a file import:
- Go to Inventory > Import Product Info > Import Walmart Marketplace Attributes.
- Click Download Template. See the description of the template headers, below.
- Populate the template with Category Name, Attribute Name, and Value (expected values are alphanumeric). Category is required because attributes are category-specific; read more about Walmart categories.
- After saving the template, click Choose File > Upload Attributes to import.
