Bulk image upload via CSV in magento - magento

I can upload bulk product information via csv but cannot understand how to upload bulk product images via CSV file. Suppose I have 500 images. Then please explain me how can I upload that images via CSV file?

Your CSV file with your products should have columns where you would put the products such as '_media_image' and 'thumbnail'.
The way I've learned that it should work is that you dump your images into /media/import then in the above mentioned image columns you would put "/image_name.jpg" for the product's image.
See: Magento import products with images for some more information.

Magento products creation software

Yes you can import products in mass using magmi

Just you have to put magmi folder in root directory

add image url in CSV in magento

I need to customize product CSV and want to use images' urls to upload images in Magento. Can anyone advise me with how to do this? Thanks
I know you can't use URLs using the normal CSV import method(s). Use magmi instead. It's worth the while learning it.
Just put the image url in image column and upload all images to media->import folder

Magento Import Using Magmi - Admin Images Not Displaying

Ive successfully imported various products using the Magmi module. The images are showing in the front end but not in the admin of Magento I am using Magento 1.7X and Magmi v0.7.18.
Hope someone can help!
Thanks,
I had the same issue, in your CSV file, change all your _media_attribute_id values to 88. You can double check this number by exporting your products to a CSV file on your new install and check what this value is.

bulk importing magento

I need help with importing bulk products to a store in our magento multi-store configuration. the products should have the names, images, categories, descriptions, custom options (sizing with fixed pricing). I created a csv and was able to successfully upload products but the sizing did not show along with the pricing. Also the images did not appear on front end. I uploaded into media/import and edited in the three csv columns. I also created a direct under the letter system for example if the image name started with ab I would created directory a/b/image.jpg and put them in the three areas of the csv. any help is greatly appreciated.
Try: Magmi Mass Importer
Better than spending the $$ on Unirgy RapidFlow if you don't have any budget.
Please download Magmi Plugin. http://sourceforge.net/projects/magmi/
And put Magmi under the root direcotry of your site
and run www.Yourdomain.com/magmi/web/magmi.php
Now configure the magmi according to your requirment.
(Note: you need to put csv file under the var/import)
It you want to Upload images You need also magmi image plugin
Download link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/magmi/files/magmi-0.7/plugins/packages/(magmi_extra_plugins_20120328.zip)
Try adding one of the products to be imported manually. Then export it from the admin panel and see what corrections should be made to the csv.
