You can quickly edit item text (titles, summaries, and descriptions) in bulk by exporting a spreadsheet, making your changes, and re-uploading it to the system.

⚠️ Important

  • Editing items in this way can cause problems if not done properly.

  • Every item in the upload file will be updated — even if unchanged.

    • If you don’t want to edit all items, remove unedited rows from the spreadsheet before uploading.

  • We strongly recommend testing this on a dummy auction or limited batch of items before applying to a live auction.


How to Edit Items via Export/Upload

  1. Log in to the admin.

  2. Go to Content > Upload/Export Item Content.

  3. Under the Export section:

    • Select the Auction and Language.

    • Click to download the spreadsheet containing item data.

    • A .csv file will be downloaded to your device.

    • This export includes title, summary, and description for each item.

  4. Open the exported file and make your changes.

  5. Return to the Upload/Export Item Content page.

  6. Under the Upload section:

    • Select the Auction and Language again.

    • Leave Abort Upload on Error ticked.

    • Click on Choose a file...

    • Select your edited spreadsheet and click Upload Item Content.
