• New Items Import -

This is primarily used to create and manage products. It keeps internal track of the products that it imports, which means that it can later update/create/delete products as they're changed/added/removed in your import file. It's also the only import type that can add/remove variations for variable products.

One limitation of new items imports is that cannot detect/update products that it didn't previously create. If you need to use a "New Items" import with a file that contains existing products, you can use WP All Import's API to prevent duplicates from being imported: https://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/developers/code-snippets/#do-not-create-products-with-duplicate-sku.

Append ACF Repeater Data

It's not possible to append a row to an ACF repeater field without a custom code workaround that utilizes our API: http://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/developers/action-reference/.

The following is an example to show you how this can be done. You will almost certainly need to adjust the code snippet to make it work with your data/site.

1. Create a new "Manual Record Matching" import that updates the post(s): http://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/recurring/manual-record-matching/

2. Store the ACF data in your own dummy custom field: http://d.pr/i/3Si4ad.

XPath doesn't allow you to make queries with Cyrillic symbols unless you disable XML pre-processing by adding this code in your child themes functions.php file (or in a plugin like Code Snippets: https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/):

function wpai_is_xml_preprocess_enabled( $is_enabled ) {
	return false;
}
add_filter( 'is_xml_preprocess_enabled', 'wpai_is_xml_preprocess_enabled', 10, 1 );

Once that code is in place, upload your file to an import and queries like this will be possible:
