CSV Uploader (BETA)

Sellers can upload a CSV file to build out their inventory for a show. 

Note: This feature is only available via whatnot.com on your web browser.

Important things to know:

• This feature is in Beta, so please bear with us while we continue to improve and fine-tune it
• The values in Category, Sub Category, Type, and Shipping Profile are sensitive and need to match the allowable values on Whatnot. You can find these values under the Values tab in this sheet.
