Good to know and limitations

  • Select all matching can select up to 50,000 customers for one bulk apply. Narrow with search, a segment, or filters if you need a smaller set.

  • Large saves and imports run in batches. Keep the browser tab open until the progress finishes. Closing the tab can interrupt the job.

  • Select-all matching combines your current search, segment, and filters.

  • Empty CSV cells are left unchanged on updates. They do not clear existing values.

  • Some columns are read-only (for example total spent, order count, created date).

  • Marketing consent updates must follow Shopify’s rules (for example subscribed states need a valid opt-in).

  • Customer metafields appear when they are defined in your store (or already present on loaded customers). Unsupported metafield types may not be editable.

  • If Shopify blocks protected customer data for the app, editing is limited until access is approved. See Customer access is blocked.

  • Segment features depend on Shopify segment permissions for the shop and staff account.

Tips for large stores

  • Use a segment or search before select-all matching.

  • Preview changes before confirming a save or import.

  • If a job fails partway, fix the listed errors and retry the remaining customers.
