Shop Uploader lets you upload physical and digital products with the same template. This article describes how to upload digital files to Etsy with Shop Uploader.
How are digital files uploaded?
Your digital files start getting uploaded from the first row of your listing in the digital_file_1 column. It then uploads to the bottom of that column. Once complete, it moves onto the digital_file_2 column. It continues this process until it reaches the end of the digital_file_5 column. Do note that Shop Uploader only uploads the first five digital files it finds per listing.
Requirements
Like with images you need to provide a valid url that links to your digital file.
However, not all urls work with Shop Uploader. This problem is because some urls do not provide your file's name or extension. Add your file's name to the digital_file_name_# column.
Lastly, set the type column to digital.
Limitations
Your file's name must be between 3 and 70 characters
Your file cannot be more than 20MB
Etsy only allows for five file uploads per listing
Note: You can get around this by using zip folders. However, the zip file must be less than 20MB.
