    Default csv with variants import question

    Hello, I have a question on how the data gets consummed per variants. I see that you only need to put one product name for all the variants. Would it count each as seperate products if you have the product name column filled for every varaint? for example...

    Product name VariantName
    "Product1" 2 ounce
    "Product1" 3 ounce
    "Product1" 4 ounce

    Like that. or does it have to be like below to count each product seperatrly....

    Product name VariantName
    "Product1" 2 ounce
    3 ounce
    4 ounce

    The first example you've stated below is the correct one. I'm afraid that the variant won't get inserted in the DB without the product name on it, since there's no way for our import logic to know which product does the variant belongs to. So, product name is a requirement.
