Overview
Extra API functionality for webservice + .NET Webservice Library
MagentoXtender is a great module (and also a windows application) to import multiple products at once into your magentostore. For each product there is a configurable product created, together with it's simple products linked to it. You can use any tab-seperated text as data input (= Pricelists in Excel or PDF for example).You just supply the basic information like a photo and a description and MagentoXtender will do the rest!
And all of this right from your fast desktop instead of the slow admin webinterface.
This application will defenitly save you a lot of time!
MagentoXtender contains:
- API Extention Module
- .NET Webservice DLL *
- .NET Application with Multiproduct import wizard *
* must be downloaded seperatly from website: http://www.linux4ever.be/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=magentoxtender
Help me to develop this module by supplying me with feedback or request a feature.
This module makes extra API functions available for SOAP and XML-RPC webservice. It should be used in combination with the VB.NET Library I am currently developping. The VB.NET program also contains a wizard to import multiple products at once.
Most important functionality is probably the possibility to link simple products to a configurable product.
Please note that this module will only install the extra API functions on your magento installation. You still need to download the VB.NET program at the following website:
http://www.linux4ever.be/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=magentoxtender
Important: If the new API functions are not available after you've installed the module than you most certainly have to disable or refresh the Cache in the admin-pages: System > Cache Management
If you have problems with certain attributes not showing any options (like color or manufacturer) , then make sure you execute the following query :
UPDATE eav_attribute SET `source_model` = 'eav/entity_attribute_source_table' WHERE attribute_code IN ('manufacturer','color')
