I am having problems importing my images in Magento CE 1.8, I have followed all the procedures

CSV have the following columns sku _attribute_set _type _category _root_category _product_websites att_cost att_eby_title att_upc created_at description external_image external_small_image external_thumbnail image manufacturer msrp name price short_description small_image status tax_class_id thumbnail visibility weight qty _media_image

the data is formatted in field="," text=" "

The image fields are in this format "/TUSHT134SLR252f140fc3bf32.jpg"

The Images are in the /media/import/ Directory

I have tried pulling the leading "/" on my image fields, that didnt work (as expected)

I keep getting "image not found" error on the import

I have used Import, Dataflow and Magmi all three give me the same error!

If you want to import images into Magento, use ImportExport (what you call "import") with the following sample CSV:

sku,_media_image,_media_attribute_id,_media_is_disabled,_media_position,_media_lable,image,small_image,thumbnail 1234567,img1.jpg,77,1,1,Image 1,img1.jpg,img2.jpg,img2.jpg ,img2.jpg,77,0,2,Image 2,,, ,img3.jpg,77,0,3,Image 3,,,

The files must be in /media/import/. In your sample, most of the media* fields are missing.

You can get the value for the _media_attribute_id by calling 

Mage::getSingleton('catalog/product')->getResource()->getAttribute('media_gallery')->getAttributeId();

  • @JeevaRathinam The fields above are for existing products. For new products, you need a few more fields. See integer-net.com/… for a detailed description. Commented Aug 9, 2016 at 8:32
