The IOF format is based on XML and is treated as the basic output format for building other product feeds, inter alia, in the module of sharing the offer and product database backup. Therefore, if you do not have any restrictions on generating an XML file with the export of a product database, we recommend to prepare an XML file matching the structure or as close as possible to the IOF. Thanks to this, using our tool will be as smooth as possible and you will not encounter limitations in the interpretation of some kind of structure. For files compatible with the open IOF format and more specifically its full type (full), all nodes will be automatically mapped. The file must be saved with UTF-8 encoding in order for the import to run correctly.
In the CSV file being prepared, the field values should be separated with a comma. The first line should be a header containing the names of the record fields described below as The name of the header in the file in CSV format. Place individual records in a new line. The file must be saved with UTF-8 encoding in order for the import to run correctly. If the imported offer is to contain multi-valued items, such as inventory states for many sizes, separate the values with a hard enters character.
