    Hi,
    I have a lot of items to maintain for my calalog and it is not realistic for me to be able to key them all into the web interface, previously before I have just made a little service that updates the catalog from my database, but I'm having a few issues inserting and I can't find related storedprocedures for examples or to use. Basically the data model makes perfect sense, but in tables like below there is a column called RowVersion which I'm not sure what to insert into it, passed that I think i'm alright with it. Can you help?
    • dbo.Revindex_Storefront_Category
    • dbo.Revindex_Storefront_Gallery
    • dbo.Revindex_Storefront_Product
    • dbo.Revindex_Storefront_ProductCategory
    • dbo.Revindex_Storefront_ProductVariant
    thanks,
    Rob

    If you can wait a few weeks, we're working on the next release that will include the product import feature. It may be easier and safer to do it like that.

    The RowVersion is a auto-generated number when you insert into the table. If you insert directly into database, you're running it at your own risk. Make sure to take a full backup. I highly recommend you wait for the product import feature.

    Since you plan on having it in a few weeks I can wait no problem, I certainly understand the risks. It would be awesome if we could use the import freature to add and update products. Maybe even a Web Service api for maintaining the catalog since we have several sources, but just a wish list item. Thanks as always for the quick and useful answers!
