The two entry points for your catalog: the Scraper reads the supplier's site by URL, and Import uploads a file you already have. Both feed products into the same pipeline.
Last updated: September 2, 2026
Every product on Trinis enters through one of these two paths and then follows the same pipeline — enrichment → image → publishing.
| Scraper (by URL) | Import (by file) | |
|---|---|---|
| When | The supplier has a site with a public catalog. | You have a spreadsheet, an XML file, or an export from another store. |
| Setup | Create a vendor under Settings → Vendors. | One-time upload on the Import Products screen. |
| Scheduling | Yes (cron per vendor). | No — each import is manual. |
| Pricing | Supplier cost × price multiplier. | The price in the file is published as-is. |
| Details | Setting Up Collect | This guide, below. |
The Scraper is included in every plan, including Trial. It identifies the supplier's platform from the URL (VTEX, Shopify, Nuvemshop, WooCommerce…) and, when it doesn't recognize any of them, reads the page with AI.
The full flow — creating a vendor, choosing the collection scope, testing with Test scrape, triggering and scheduling jobs — is covered in Setting Up Collect.
Use Import Products (side menu) when:
Import also requires the Scraper module to be active (every plan has it) and counts against the monthly product quota, like any job.
On the import screen, download the template in CSV or XML using the template button. Accepted formats: .csv and .xml.
| Column | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
nome | Yes | Product title. |
descricao | Yes | Base description — AI rewrites it if enrichment is on. |
preco | Yes | Final selling price, with a decimal point (49.90). Published as-is. |
ean | Recommended | Without an EAN, products aren't deduplicated — reimporting creates duplicates in the store. |
imagem_url | No | Public URL of an image. |
categoria | No | — |
tags | No | Comma-separated. |
Example rows (the ones starting with Exemplo:) are ignored automatically.
Once you choose the file, Trinis parses it right away and shows:
Fix the file and resubmit if there are errors. Nothing is saved at this stage.
Handle, Title, Variant Price…), Trinis recognizes it automatically, maps the columns, and merges variant rows into one product per Handle (using the first variant of each). The description's HTML is converted to plain text.
Once the preview is confirmed, choose:
Clicking Import sends the products into the pipeline: (enrichment) → image → publishing by EAN. Track progress in the Jobs tab.
imagem_url is processed by Image AI when active, or published as it came.
If there's no capacity left for the month, the import is trimmed to whatever fits the quota — or blocked, with the option to buy extra credits.
