BigCommerce custom fields are incredibly useful, but managing them across hundreds or thousands of products can quickly become a time-consuming mess.

Custom Field Populator gives you one place to create, edit, bulk update, automate, import, export and clean up custom fields across your entire BigCommerce catalog.

Instead of opening products one at a time, working through complicated spreadsheets, or trying to remember which products need which fields, Custom Field Populator lets you manage everything from an easy-to-use app right inside your BigCommerce control panel.

Edit Custom Fields Right on Your Products

Browse your catalog and edit custom fields directly from the Product Fields Editor. Update one product or select multiple products and make changes in bulk.

Advanced filters let you quickly find products by category, price, inventory status and other criteria, making it easy to target exactly the products you need.

Automatically Add the Right Fields to the Right Products

Create Custom Field Rules that automatically apply fields to products based on conditions you define.

Use rules to add fields to all products, specific categories, products matching certain conditions, or new products as they're added to your catalog.

Once the rules are set, Custom Field Populator does the repetitive work for you.

Import and Export Custom Fields in Bulk

Need to make large changes in a spreadsheet? Import custom fields using CSV files and match products by SKU or BigCommerce Product ID.

Custom Field Populator can also create new custom fields automatically when they're included in an import.

Export your existing custom field data whenever you need to review it, edit it externally, or share it with another system.

Schedule Custom Field Updates

Automate recurring updates by scheduling custom field imports or rule-based changes to run daily, weekly or monthly.

Imports can come from an uploaded file, URL or Google Sheet.

You can even schedule temporary changes and set a revert time, making it easy to add promotional messages or field values for a sale and automatically restore the original values when the promotion ends.

Restore Changes with Snapshots

Custom Field Populator automatically creates Snapshots before bulk changes, imports and scheduled updates.

If something doesn't look right, restore the previous custom field values with a click instead of trying to recreate them manually.

Clean Up Messy Custom Field Data

Custom fields have a way of getting messy over time, especially when multiple employees, imports or integrations are involved.

Custom Field Populator Premium includes Custom Field Clean Up, which scans your catalog for problems such as:

• Duplicate custom fields

• Case mismatches such as "Color" and "color"

• Similar or repeated fields

• Empty custom field values

Clean Up helps you identify and fix those problems, while cleanup rules help prevent them from coming back.

Find & Replace Across Your Catalog

Need to correct a value that's used across hundreds of products?

Premium's Find & Replace tool lets you change custom field values throughout your catalog at once without exporting, editing and re-importing a spreadsheet.

Keep an Eye on Custom Field Health

Premium users can receive a weekly Custom Field Health Report highlighting newly detected field issues, helping you catch inconsistencies before they spread across your catalog.

See What's Happening

The Tasks tray shows live progress while imports, exports and other jobs are running, while the Activity page keeps a history of changes so you can see what happened, when it happened and who made the change.

Whether you have a few dozen products or a catalog with thousands of SKUs, Custom Field Populator helps you spend less time managing custom fields and more time managing your store.
