Automated Product Spreadsheet Updates for E-Commerce Retailers

Screenshot

As part of the 'Advent 2024 — 24 Days of Automations' series, Freelock has outlined a method for e-commerce distributors to automate the daily update of product spreadsheets for retailer clients. The process leverages Drupal’s Events, Conditions, and Actions (ECA) module along with Views Data Export to streamline spreadsheet generation and file management. The approach involves creating a view that displays all necessary product fields, running the view to generate an initial spreadsheet, and uploading it to the media library. Using the ECA module's "Views Export Query into File" action, the system automatically overwrites the file daily, ensuring retailers always have access to the latest product data. This solution highlights Freelock's focus on simplifying automation processes for e-commerce businesses.
