The app validates the spreadsheet data against the data model rules configured by the developer and shows the errors to the users. The users can edit the data in the widget itself to resolve the validation errors before submitting the file. This ensures that the submitted data is clean and ready-to-use.
I have been developing Shopify apps for the past 5 years. Currently working on a new project csvbox.io to solve a common problem that I have faced many times.
There have been many applications where we needed to accept spreadsheets from the end customers. Building an importer from scratch is time consuming and maintaining it is another headache. Moreover, the import process for the customers is messy because they have to read the docs and follow the upload templates. In many cases, after long support email threads we ultimately have to manually accept, clean and input the data.
As a solution I built the csvbox.io import widget. Its a no code, drop-in widget that allows you to accept files in minutes. Users can upload files, match columns, validate data all in a few clicks. You receive ready to use data in your app. A better experience for your customers, fewer headaches for your team!
I launched it only a few days ago. Happy to receive feedback on everything - UI/UX, features, pricing etc.
