How do I import my existing Back in Stock subscribers into Notify Me!?

Learn how to import your requests

Updated yesterday

If you’re new to Notify Me! or switching from another back-in-stock service, you can import your existing subscriber list to continue notifying customers seamlessly.

Steps to import your subscriber list

  1. Go to the Back in Stock section in your Notify Me! app.

  2. Click on Import Requests.

Download the sample CSV template provided.

Prepare your CSV file

The sample CSV file includes these 5 required columns:

  • email: Subscriber’s email address (e.g., [email protected]).

  • product_url: URL of the product requested (e.g., https://devstore-17.myshopify.com/products/awesome-shoe?variant=37969409802410).

  • phone_number: Subscriber’s phone number with + prefix (e.g., +219386438029).

  • subscribe_at: Date of request (format: YYYY-MM-DD, e.g., 2021-04-13).

  • 1: Column number placeholder.

Important notes:

  • The column names must exactly match the sample file.

  • You may include extra columns, but these 5 columns must be present.

  • If you don’t have phone numbers, include the phone_number column and leave it empty.

  • The subscribe_at field should only contain the date (not time).

  • Phone numbers must start with +.

Adjust your existing file to match this structure before uploading.
