How to Bulk Upload Images to Printify
This guide shows how to upload multiple JPEG, PNG, and SVG files, or use Pro to import a local CSV file or public Google Sheets CSV link, to your Printify Media Library with a Chrome extension for bulk uploading.
What this tutorial shows
You will learn how to install the Chrome extension, create a Printify API token, add the token to the uploader, select local images or use Pro CSV and Google Sheets CSV import, and start one bulk upload batch.
What you need
- Google Chrome or another Chromium-based browser that supports Chrome extensions.
- A Printify account with access to the API token page.
- JPEG, PNG, or SVG files, or a local CSV file or public Google Sheets CSV link with direct image links for Pro CSV import.
Step 1: Install the Chrome extension
Open the Chrome Web Store listing, add the extension to your browser, and launch it from Chrome.
Step 2: Create a Printify API token
In Printify, open the API token page from your account settings and create an API token. Keep the token private because it allows uploads to your Printify account.
Step 3: Add your token
Paste your Printify API token into the token field inside the extension and save it. The extension uses this token to upload images directly to your Printify Media Library.
Step 4: Add files, CSV, or a Sheets link
Select or drag multiple JPEG, PNG, or SVG files into the uploader, or use Pro to import a local CSV file or paste a public Google Sheets CSV link. The extension lists the files or URL rows so you can review them before starting the upload.
Step 5: Start bulk upload
Click the upload button to send the selected files or imported URLs in one batch. You can watch the progress and review any failed items after the batch finishes.
Common errors
- Invalid Printify API token
- If the token is invalid or expired, create a new token in Printify and paste the new value into the extension.
- Unsupported file type
- The extension accepts JPEG, PNG, and SVG files. Other file types should be converted before upload.
- CSV or Google Sheets URL cannot be downloaded
- CSV and Google Sheets imports need public direct image links. If a URL is private, expired, duplicated, or not an image file, fix the row and import again.
- Daily free upload limit reached
- Free users can upload up to 10 images per day. Upgrade to Pro if you need unlimited daily uploads for active Printify selling.
FAQ
- Does this create Printify products automatically?
- No. It currently uploads images to your Printify Media Library only.
- Do I need to keep Printify open?
- No. The extension uses your Printify API token to upload images directly.
- Can I upload many images at once?
- Yes. You can select or drag multiple image files, and Pro users can import a local CSV file or public Google Sheets CSV link in one batch.
