There are several methods to export products from WooCommerce:
- The first one is the Built-in Export Tool. WooCommerce comes with a built-in export feature accessible via the WordPress dashboard.

In this tutorial, we will use the first method because it doesn’t require installation of any additional plugins.
Step 2: WooCommerce Built-in Export Tool

- Click on the “Export” button.
- Select the product data you want to export (for example, all products, specific categories or specific product types).
- Adjust any export options as needed (for example, export only selected columns).
- Click on the “Generate CSV” button to initiate the export.
Step 3: Review Exported File
Once the export process is complete, review the exported data to ensure accuracy. You can use any spreadsheet editor software like MS Excel or similar.
