Step 1: Export existing Yotpo reviews
To complete this step, see Exporting Reviews from Yotpo.
Step 2: Update the reviews file
Use a spreadsheet application such as LibreOffice or Google Sheets to open the CSV file in UTF-8 encoding.
Remove any reviews/rows that are irrelevant or unrelated to this change.
Use the following information to match the values of the new product page:
Product URL
Product image URL
Product title (optional - if titles have been changed)
SKU (must be the new Product ID)
Ensure that the product IDs in your file match the product IDs on your website for every product.
Save the file either as Excel (.xlsx) or a .csv file in UTF-8 encoding (other formats, such as Apple Numbers, are not supported).

Step 3 - Send the reviews file to Yotpo Support
Contact support and let them know that you want to move reviews into a new product page or product ID.
Upload the file using the Upload a file section at the bottom of the form.
Click Submit.
Once the updated reviews are imported and you confirm that you see them on your site, we will go ahead and delete the old reviews.
Important:
This process does not over-write previous reviews - it creates new entries. This means that the old reviews will be deleted in order to avoid duplicate reviews.
