Pics.io: Bulk Image Upload

Have you ever felt like not spending the entire time manually matching SKUs in your store with respective images? We know you did, hence why we’ve created the Pics.io plugin!

How does it work?

Simply add product SKU anywhere to the image's metadata using Pics.io and the plugin will do the rest. Forget about copying direct image links to CSV. Import products to your Shopify with Pics.io plugin by matching images with products from your Pics.io collection.

But that’s not everything that Pics.io has to offer. Here are more features that you’ll get access to:

Tagging and Folders

What if you have hundreds of products? With Pics.io's ability to create custom tags and nested folders, you can keep everything separated and structured, nice and clean. Bulk image edit feature, meanwhile, lets you tag multiple images at once, so they are always easy to find using visual markers and keywords.

Bulk Image Uploader

Just by including SKU anywhere within the image’s metadata, the Pics.io plugin becomes a bulk image uploader! The plugin will pick them up and match with product SKUs in your Shopify store. Bulk imports via CSV are even more convenient than before.

No Direct Links Hassle

Copying direct links is time-consuming. With Pics.io, you’ll no longer have to worry about that, as the plugin enables direct uploads: from your media library straight to Shopify. This frees up your time that you can spend optimizing your store visibility elsewhere, like google channels, for instance. Speaking of Google, with Pics.io you can keep your Google Drive (or Amazon S3) storage at no extra cost.

Digital Asset Management

Pics.io Bulk Image Upload is a free extension of our Digital Asset Management (DAM). DAM is a software designed to make creating, finding, and sharing of your product images easy. When you have hundreds of products, 5-7 images for each one, your media library becomes difficult to navigate. Finding or updating a product's visuals becomes a time sink that you cannot ignore due to the marketing importance of visuals. Using an intuitive UI, you can add keywords and custom metadata fields to find images quicker. Innovative version control, meanwhile, keeps all asset revisions under one thumbnail so you always know which is the most up-to-date image.

...And so much more!

Here’s play-by-play to give you a general idea:

1. Upload your images to cloud storage: Google Drive, S3, or Pics.io’s own.
2. Add the product’s SKU as the image’s filename or anywhere else in the image’s metadata.
3. In Pics.io, choose an option to match products with images by custom field.
4. Let the indexing finish and verify that all images have been correctly mapped to the products.
5. Once it’s done, hit Upload

Say no to manual labor. Say yes to the Pics.io plugin.
