Commerce CSV product import limits and job considerations
Key Takeaway
One CSV import session handles up to 10,000 products with nine images each. Only one Commerce import job can run at a time.
The Commerce app lets you bulk load products, product variations, categories, prices, entitlements, and images into B2B stores by uploading a CSV file. The CSV import has a size limit and runs one job at a time. It also follows rules about what it can create, update, or only add. You need these limits and rules to plan an import that finishes with the data you expect.

Use the Salesforce Data Loader tool. Unlike the CSV import, Data Loader leaves the relationships to you, so you must keep the correct relationships between objects yourself. Schema Builder helps you see how the objects relate.
