Magento CLI: product export

Although most Magento 2 administrators prefer working with their e-commerce website’s strengths in the admin area, there are still many people who require the same management opportunities to be implemented with the command-line interface.

Magento 2 CLI Guide 2026: Everything You Need to Know About CLI Commands for Magento Open Source & Adobe Commerce, Including Import & Export

- Fire development, Magento 2

Magento 2 Development; Magento 2 tutorial

Managing an ecommerce store from the Admin Panel is convenient, but many Magento 2 and Adobe Commerce tasks are faster and more flexible from the command line. The Magento 2 CLI (Command-Line Interface) provides developers and system administrators with direct access to essential store management, configuration, maintenance, deployment, and data operations.

With the bin/magento CLI, you can perform tasks such as clearing cache, reindexing catalog data, running cron jobs, managing modules, deploying static content, changing configuration, enabling maintenance mode, and upgrading the Magento database. CLI commands are also important for automating recurring operations and managing large-scale ecommerce environments.

Although Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce share the same core CLI framework, Adobe Commerce can provide additional commands through its Commerce-specific modules and services. The available command set also depends on the Magento version and enabled extensions.

In this guide, we explain how to use Magento 2 CLI commands, show the most useful commands for Magento Open Source, highlight additional Adobe Commerce commands, and explain how to execute CLI operations safely. You will also learn how the command line can support Magento 2 product import, export, data synchronization, migration, and other automated workflows. Continue Reading

Magento 2 REST API Import: Guide for Adobe Commerce & Magento Open Source

- E-Commerce, Magento 2, Our extensions

Magento 2 REST API Import

Magento 2 REST API provides a standard way to connect your store with external systems and exchange data through API requests. It can be used to integrate Magento 2 with ERP, CRM, PIM, supplier, marketplace, and other third-party platforms. Adobe Commerce and Magento Open Source use the REST API framework to expose a wide range of endpoints for working with store data.

However, using the Magento REST API to import data from an external system is not the same as sending an individual API request. When you need to retrieve product, customer, order, category, inventory, or other data regularly, you also need to handle authentication, data formats, attribute mapping, transformations, and import scheduling.

This is where the Improved Import & Export extension for Magento 2 comes in. It lets you connect Magento 2 to external REST API sources and import data in JSON or XML format. You can configure API requests, map external fields to Magento attributes, transform data, and automate recurring imports.

In this guide, we explain how the Magento 2 REST API works, how to configure REST API data import with Improved Import & Export in 2026, and which features can make API-based data synchronization easier in both Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce.

Advanced Magento 2 Import with XSLT Transformation: How to Import any XML to Magento Open Source & Adobe Commerce

- E-Commerce, Magento 2

When working with suppliers, you may often encounter XML files with custom table structures and formatting. Magento 2 cannot always process these files out of the box, especially when product attributes use different names or follow a structure that doesn’t match Magento’s requirements.

The same challenge can occur when exporting data. Your CRM, ERP, supplier, or other business software may require XML files to follow a specific structure and formatting standard.

That’s why we introduced XSLT support in the Improved Import & Export extension. It lets you transform XML files and adapt their structure to the format required by Magento 2 or your external systems, making it easier to exchange product and other data with virtually any integration.
