To export a product variation in WooCommerce, simply create a new export in All Export \u203a New Export<\/strong>, choose WooCommerce Products<\/strong> from the dropdown list, add the filter to match your specific variation, and then run the export.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also export a product variation using the default WordPress exporter, but it doesn't provide as much functionality and control as WP All Export does, especially for product variation and attribute data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Export a Product Variation in WooCommerce<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are the steps needed to export a product variation in WooCommerce:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Install the Pro versions of WP All Export and the WooCommerce Export Add-On.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Navigate to All Export \u203a New Export<\/strong> and choose WooCommerce Products<\/strong> from the dropdown list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Input a filter to target the specific product variation that you want to export.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Set up the product and variation export columns.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Run the export and download the export file.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    You don't always need to define a filter for product variation exports. To export all product variations, follow the same steps from above but do the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. While setting up the export columns, click on Advanced Options<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Under Product Variations<\/strong>, choose Only export product variations<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      This will export all product variation data and exclude all parent products from the export.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To alter a product variation during the export, use custom PHP code: How to Pass Exported WordPress Data Through PHP Functions<\/a>. There's also an option to create dynamic product variation columns during the export.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If needed, you can send the exported product variation to a third-party service using Zapier. Alternatively, you can use custom code and WP All Export's API (see Action Reference<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To modify a product variation outside of WooCommerce, export it, edit it in a spreadsheet and then re-import it. For more information, see How to Bulk Edit WooCommerce Products<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Note, product variation data is exported to a CSV file format by default. If you prefer working with XML or Excel, just change the export file type in the Drag & Drop<\/strong> screen. Product variation data is often easier to visualize in the indented XML format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
