Importing images

You can use Shift to add & update images on products, categories and brands.

Images will need to be publicly hosted somewhere, e.g. BigCommerce using WebDAV.

Importing from WebDAV​

Once uploaded to WebDAV, you can use the permanent store URL or the CDN URL.

So, for an image hypa-logo.png uploaded into the product_images directory of WebDAV of the store with hash abcdef123 the URL can be in one of the following formats:

https://store-abcdef123.mybigcommerce.com/product_images/hypa-logo.png
https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-abcdef123/product_images/hypa-logo.png

If you're unsure of the URL, you can use File Explorer app to copy the public URL of any file.

Image Requirements​

BigCommerce requires that all images:

  • Are smaller than 8MB in size.
  • Are of type JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP or GIF. TIFF, BMP and PDF file types are not supported.
  • Have a URL no longer than 1024 characters.
