How to get started with the Plytix Platform

 

STEP 1: Sign up for Plytix 

Reach out to an Account Executive who will set you up with a free account. No credit card required. You can also ask for a demo to see the endless possibilities of our system. 

STEP 2: Play around with the system

You can choose if your new account should have demo content in it to help you understand how your own content will look and be managed in the system or if you wish to receive a blank account. Give it a go and remember to ask us any questions you may have in the live chat!

STEP 3: Get your products in the PIM

If you have requested an account with demo sample data and you wish to start with your own content, you can either A) delete all the attributes and products in your account or B) speak to your Account Executive about getting a fresh new account.

STEP 4: Import your product content

Next, you’ll want to add your products to Plytix. You can do this using a CSV. The only required field is an SKU or other unique identifier to match with the Plytix system attribute "SKU". We suggest importing a small sample of your data (20-50 products and 5-10 attributes) to start your set up. 

To start importing products go to https://pim.plytix.com/imports/upload
