Linking Listing to Existing Shopify Products

If the same products already exist in both platforms, you can link them instead of importing them again.

Automatic linking (recommended)

The app will automatically link products when possible. Auto-linking is based on SKU matching, so:

  • Each product and variant must have a unique SKU
  • The same SKU must exist in both platforms for a successful match

If SKUs match correctly, linking will happen automatically.

Manual linking (if auto-linking fails)

If auto-linking does not occur—usually due to missing, duplicate, or mismatched SKUs—you can link products manually from the app:

  1. Go to the Etsy Listings page in the app

  2. Open the “Non-Shopify” tab

  3. Find the product row you want to link

  4. Click the three vertical dots (⋮) at the end of the row

  5. Select “Link to Shopify product”

  6. A modal will appear showing suggested matches (if available)

  7. You can either:

    • Select one of the suggested matches, or
    • Search manually by product title and link it

Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the linking process.

App Usage limit Increment or decrement

To prevent unexpected charges, we’ve set a usage limit of $15.00 by default. This ensures you’re not overwhelmed when usage fees are applied. With this limit, you can import or export up to 150 products on the Free plan and 300 products on Paid plans.

If you reach this usage limit and need to increase it, follow the steps below:

  1. Click the top-right corner of the app, as shown in the screenshot below, and select Manage App.
