2. Creating Your 3D Catalogue

Syncing Your Products

Easily sync tagged Shopify products to Imersian and manage product imports for 3D model creation.

Your store is always changing, new products, price updates, and stock changes. The Sync feature ensures Imersian always sees the latest version of your catalog. This eliminates manual data entry and ensures that when you add a new rug or sofa to Shopify, it appears in your Imersian dashboard instantly.


How to Sync

Note: The Initial Sync of your full catalogue is performed by the Imersian team as a complimentary service during your onboarding process.

Follow the steps below for ongoing updates whenever you add new inventory to your store.

Prerequisites

  • Product must be Active (not Draft)

  • Dimensions are included (in variant title or product description)

  • Has at least one product image that follows our Image Guidelines

Step 1: Tag products that you would like to enable for the visualiser

In order to generate a 3D model of products you wish to enable visualisation for, we require a high quality image of your product. but before we proceed, we need to sync your product images into Imersian. Here's two ways of doing this.

Option A. Tag Multiple Products from Shopify Admin

Go to Your Products
  1. From your Shopify admin, click ProductsAll products.

  2. Tick the boxes next to all the products you want to enable the visualiser for.

Step 2. Add the Tag
  1. Click More actionsAdd tags.

  2. Type:

    imersianvisualiserenabled
  3. Hit Save

Option B. Use Shopify’s Bulk Editor (for a larger batch)

If you have a larger batch you'd like to sync, you may use the Shopify Bulk Editor.

Open the Bulk Editor
  1. In Products, select the items you want to edit.

  2. Click Edit products.
    This opens the spreadsheet-style bulk editor.

Add the Tags Column (if not visible)
  1. Click the Columns button on the top right.

  2. Tick Tags.

Add the Tag

In the Tags column for each product, add:

imersianvisualiserenabled

Step 2. Sync your products to Imersian

Now that your tags are in place, it’s time to pull those products into Imersian.

  1. In your Imersian dashboard, go to the Integration page.

  2. Under the Shopify section, navigate to the final step and click Sync Products.

  3. Once complete, open the Manage page. You’ll see your newly tagged products appear here.

  4. If products have not appeared, please give it a few minutes and refresh the page. The sync time depends on how many active products are in your Shopify store (a larger batch of products might take a little longer).

You’ll see your newly tagged products appear here.

We can now proceed to the next step to generate 3D models for your products.

Alt Tag Cheat Sheet

Use these on your product images (you only need to tag one image per product to trigger sync):

  • imersianvisualiserenabledInclude in the visualiser

  • imersianvisualiserskipIgnore this product completely

⚠️ If no valid product is tagged, the product won’t sync.
