      What is a catalog? Catalogs are collections of products. You can house all your products in a single catalog (using catalog views to arrange, filter, and sort columns according to your needs) or organize your products across multiple. Catalog organization examples: by launch date, brand, & product category.

      1. On the left sidebar, click Catalogs.
      2. Click the three dots in the corner of your catalog.

      3. Select Edit Catalog.
      4. Make your edits and click the Save Changes button at the bottom.

      Move products between catalogs

      Important: Currently, you can only move products between catalogs created via file upload.

      1. Within any catalog, select any number of products you'd like to move.
      2. Click the three dots on the top right to expand more options..
      3. Click the Move Products button.
