Understanding product images

Sellercloud can be set up to host images of your products, and send those images to websites while publishing your catalog as needed.

For example, if you upload an image into Sellercloud for product X, it will automatically be used when publishing product X to eBay, Sears, and Magento.

Product images can be classified as:

These images can be brought into Sellercloud in several ways:

Using the Image Manager

From the product detail page, you can browse to the product-specific Image Manager and upload images to the product. Upload a product into the Image Manager panel by clicking “View All” in the panel. In the Image Manager, upload the image file and complete the fields as desired.

Using ImageBridge

This lets you drag and drop images using Sellercloud’s own desktop tool, ImageBridge.

Importing images with a file upload
  1. Click Catalog > Tools > Import Product Info > Import Product Images.
  2. Download the template, enter the image URL into the FileName column, and use the other columns to set the image placement. Note: You can also choose an existing template, if available.
To prevent overwriting existing images with the same product image URL on the file, but are actually two different images (meaning, the image was replaced at the source, but you want to keep the old image on the product), enable the Client Setting Do not overwrite existing image in bulk upload.
