Export and import is designed for copying strategy configuration between stores. The destination store still needs equivalent products, variants, collections, locations, markets, integrations, and Shopify app blocks.
Only active parent strategies are exported. Draft, archived, split-test child, and other child strategies are not included.
Open Apps > Order Editing > Upsells.
Open Developer and choose the export action.
Select the active parent strategies to include.
Download the JSON file and keep it unchanged for import.
The filename identifies the source store and export date. Treat the file as store configuration and review where it is shared.
On the destination store, open Apps > Order Editing > Upsells.
Open Developer and choose the import action.
Upload the exported JSON file or paste its JSON content.
Review the detected strategies and destination resources.
Order Editing attempts to map resources using stable merchant-facing data:
Resource | Matching information |
|---|---|
Products | Title and handle |
Variants | SKU and option values |
Collections | Handle |
Locations | Name |
Replace or remove unmatched resources during review. If an unresolved resource is dropped, the affected module or condition may import with an empty slot that needs configuration.
Every imported strategy targets all destination markets. Review and narrow markets before activation.
When a strategy name already exists, the importer can keep both by adding (copy) to the imported name. Review renamed strategies so staff can distinguish the source and destination versions.
Referenced content blocks are recreated as Draft. Shopify file identifiers are not copied between stores, so reselect any images or files from the destination store's Shopify Files.
Resolve or intentionally drop each unmatched resource.
Review the import summary and finishing notes.
Apply the import.
Open every imported strategy and content block.
Recheck products, variants, collections, locations, markets, images, integrations, targeting, placement, and app-block installation.
Imported strategies are always Draft, regardless of the source strategy's status. Preview and test them on the destination store before activating them.
