See every featureGrowthLine File Cleaner helps Shopify merchants turn supplier CSV and XLSX files into Shopify-ready import CSVs. Preview parsed rows, map supplier columns, validate titles, SKUs, barcodes, prices, and duplicates, then fix issues before export. Pro/Ops add saved supplier profiles, BYO AI mapping and repair suggestions, supplier history, change reports, and catalogue comparison.
Supplier price lists and catalog spreadsheets rarely match Shopify's CSV template. Portaim imports them as they are: upload a CSV or Excel file, or a Google Sheets, Drive or Dropbox link. AI maps the columns to Shopify fields, splits combined values into variant options and turns image columns into a gallery. Every row is checked for what Shopify would reject, with one-click fixes.
- Preview parsed CSV/XLSX rows before mapping
- Map supplier columns to Shopify product fields
- Validate required fields, prices, duplicate SKUs and barcodes
- 40+ validation rules catch price, weight, URL, and format errors before import
- AI column mapping matches supplier fields to store fields automatically
- Batch auto-fix resolves most issues — strips currency, converts units, normalize
- Supports CSV and XLSX files from any supplier format
