How to Import Shopify Product Variants Data into Google Sheets

Managing product variants in Shopify can get messy fast. When you need to analyze pricing, inventory, or SKU performance across multiple product options, spreadsheets become essential.

But manually exporting this data is tedious and creates instantly outdated reports.

Step-by-step guide to importing Shopify Product Variants

Step 1: Install Coefficient and connect to Shopify

First, you’ll need to install the Coefficient add-on and connect it to your Shopify store.

1. Open Google Sheets
2. Click Extensions > Add-ons > Get add-ons
3. Search for “Coefficient” and install it from Google Workspace Marketplace
4. Once installed, open the Coefficient sidebar by clicking Extensions > Coefficient > Launch
5. In the sidebar, click “Import Data”

Now connect to your Shopify store:

1. Select “Shopify” under the Ecommerce category
2. Click “Connect” and follow the authentication prompts
3. Grant the necessary permissions to allow Coefficient to access your Shopify data

Step 2: Import Product Variants data

With your Shopify account connected, you can now import Product Variants data:

1. In the Coefficient sidebar, select “Import from Objects”
2. Browse or search for “Product Variants” in the objects list
3. Click on “Product Variants” to select it
4. Choose which fields you want to import (ID, SKU, price, inventory quantity, etc.)
5. Apply any filters if needed (e.g., only variants with inventory > 0)
6. Click “Import” to bring the data into your Google Sheet

Your Product Variants data will now populate in your Google Sheet with all the selected fields. Each row represents a different product variant with its associated details.

Step 3: Set up auto-refresh (optional but recommended)

Keep your Product Variants data fresh by setting up automatic refreshes:

1. In the Coefficient sidebar, click on the “Automations” tab
2. Select the Product Variants import you just created
3. Click “Schedule Refresh”
4. Choose your preferred refresh frequency (hourly, daily, weekly)
5. Set specific times for the refresh to occur
6. Click “Save” to activate the auto-refresh schedule

With auto-refresh enabled, your Shopify Product Variants data will always stay current in your Google Sheet without manual updates.
