Move your reviews from Yotpo to Formgong
Last updated
Yotpo emails the export as a CSV file. Formgong reads Yotpo's columns as they are.
Steps
- In Yotpo Reviews, open Manage › Reviews, set filters if you want only some reviews, and click Export at the top right. Yotpo emails a download link to your account address; it can take up to an hour.
- In Formgong, open Reviews, pick your site and open the Import / Export tab. No review site yet? Get started first.
- Under Import reviews, choose the file, pick the Language of these reviews and press Import. Formgong recognises the file from its header row.
- Read the result: how many reviews came in, and how many were skipped and why. Everything imported is pending, so nothing is public yet.
- Check the reviews on the Reviews tab, then press Publish … imported reviews. Undo this import removes them instead.
What comes across
- Ratings, text, reviewer names, original dates, titles and your public replies come across. Photos and videos do not.
- Reviewer emails are not stored, so imported reviews have no edit link.
- Importing the same file again adds nothing, so you can import a newer export later.
- Each review keeps its product handle when the file has one, else its product ID. Use the same value in the widget's
data-product; on Shopify that is{{ product.handle }}. - Yotpo marks buyers in a Reviewer Type column. Formgong does not read it, so imported reviews do not get the Verified buyer label.
- Yotpo cannot export Q&A, and leaves out reviews from the last 24 hours, so export again later for the newest ones.
