In addition to prices, information about product attributes and photos is downloaded from the aliexpress website, this information can be transferred to existing products or create new products, thereby expanding your product catalog.
How to parse an aliexpress website
There are several modes of parsing:
- Specify links manually to the categories or products you need.
- Load a list of links from a file that require information from the site. The file must be in CSV (text file) format.
- Upload your products to the base catalog and start searching for products on the site based on your products, the program will insert your product name into the search bar of the site and save the received product to the program database. In this mode, it is important that your product names are identical to the names on the site or very close to them, because the accuracy of the search depends on the algorithm of the site itself, whether it can find the product you need or not.
To load a list of links from a file follow these steps
Automated search for your products on the aliexpress marketplace website
- You must specify a link to search in the settings:
https://aliexpress.ru/wholesale?catId=&SearchText={NAME}
Instead of {NAME}, the program will substitute your keyword and generate links to search for your product on the source site. You can also specify the {SKU} macro substitution so that the search is carried out by the value from the "Manufacturer's Article" field, instead of the name. - Activate the option "Search for your products"
Uploading products to a summary report
After receiving the products from the marketplace website, there will be information on each seller for the products (at what price he sells the goods)
You can generate a report in Excel for visual viewing of prices for each product and online store. To do this, open the "Uploaded products" tab, additional menu, "Upload prices to XLSX" item.
You will receive a report like this. The report will create rows with products and columns for each seller, indicating prices
The report does not contain a link to your base catalog products, but only displays downloaded products from the marketplace site. If you need to generate a report with your products and marketplace products, use the "Product catalog upload" subsystem, XLSX template .
