Bulk Upload allows you to generate images for multiple products at once using a CSV file. Upload your product data, define generation settings per SKU, and create lifestyle or studio imagery at scale—without manual uploads.


Overview

The Bulk Upload feature allows you to generate images for multiple products at once using a CSV file.

  • Create imagery for 10+ products
  • Generate assets across large catalogs (100–500+ SKUs)
  • Avoid uploading products one at a time

When to Use Bulk Upload

Use Bulk Upload when you need to generate images for multiple products at once instead of uploading them individually.

Common use cases:

  • Creating imagery for large product catalogs (10–500+ SKUs)
  • Generating consistent studio or lifestyle images across a collection
  • Launching new product drops or seasonal updates
  • Scaling image production without manual uploads

Before You Start

  • Product image URLs must be publicly accessible (e.g., hosted on your site or CDN)
  • Your CSV must match the provided template format
  • Start with a small test (5–10 rows) before uploading large files

Step 1: Download the CSV Template

  1. Go to Create New
  2. Click Bulk Upload
  3. Select Download CSV Template

This template defines how each product will be generated.


Step 2: Fill Out the CSV

Each row in the CSV represents one product you want to generate images for.

Required fields:

  • Product Name
  • Product Image URL (must be publicly accessible)

Optional fields:

  • Inspiration Image
  • Dimensions (height, width, depth in inches)
  • Prompt
  • Number of images
  • Aspect ratio
  • Request type (e.g., Studio or Lifestyle)

💡 Tip: Customize settings per row to control how each product is generated, including output type, image count, and styling.


Step 3: Upload the CSV

  1. Save your file as a CSV
  2. Click Upload CSV
  3. Select your file
  4. Name your upload
  5. Click Submit

Step 4: How Bulk Upload Processing Works

After submission:

  • A task is created for each row in your CSV
  • Each product appears as its own card
  • Images begin generating automatically

Each row becomes an independent product, so you can:

  • Edit images
  • Regenerate variations
  • Manage outputs individually

Processing speed

Bulk uploads are processed in batches:

  • ~30 products every ~5 minutes
  • ~300 products in ~30 minutes
  • ~600 products per hour

Large uploads will populate progressively as batches complete.


Step 5: Track Progress

You can monitor progress from the bulk upload card:

  • New product cards appear as they are processed
  • Images populate as they finish generating

Step 6: Work With Generated Images

Bulk-generated images behave like standard ALL3D images.

You can:

  • Edit
  • Regenerate
  • Compare
  • Collaborate
  • Download or upscale

Step 7: Filter by Bulk Upload

To view all images from a specific upload:

  1. Go to Gallery
  2. Use the Bulk Request filter

This allows you to:

  • View all outputs from a specific upload
  • Review large jobs efficiently
  • Avoid sorting through unrelated images

Studio vs Lifestyle Outputs

You can control output type in the CSV:

  • Studio mode → clean, plain backgrounds
  • Lifestyle mode → fully designed environments

Tips

  • Use high-quality product images for best results
  • Ensure image URLs are valid and publicly accessible
  • Use inspiration images to guide lighting and composition
  • Test with a small upload before scaling

Troubleshooting

Images are not generating

  • Confirm product image URLs are publicly accessible
  • Check that your CSV matches the template format

Outputs don’t look as expected

  • Review prompt and inspiration inputs
  • Confirm request type (Studio vs Lifestyle)

Missing products after upload

  • Verify all rows were included in the CSV
  • Re-upload if necessary

Summary

Bulk Upload allows you to bring large product catalogs into ALL3D quickly and generate imagery at scale.

Instead of uploading products one at a time, you can:

  • Define your inputs in a CSV
  • Generate images in parallel
  • Manage each product individually once created
