Use catalog import to pull your existing listings from App Store Connect or Google Play directly into the Unity Dashboard. When you import, Unity retrieves your listings using the credentials you provide and adds new listings to your catalog. For listings that already exist, you can choose to skip or overwrite them.

Import from App Store Connect or Google Play

To import a catalog from the Unity Dashboard, follow these steps:

Open In-App Purchases > Catalog.
Select Import catalog.
Select the Platform you want to import a catalog from (either iOS or Android).
Select the credential for your platform. For the required credential contents and permissions, refer to Credential requirements.
Review the import summary. Each listing in the file is assigned a status. For listings with a Conflict status, choose how to handle them:
- Skip duplicates: keep the existing listing and ignore the imported version.
- Overwrite existing: replace the existing listing with the imported version.
Select Import SKUs.

Credential requirements

The credential is a secret you store in Secret Manager. Unity uses it to read your listings from the store. For each platform, copy the full JSON entry into a single secret. The required contents and permissions depend on your platform. For iOS, store an App Store Connect API key as the following JSON entry:


{  "p8": "<.p8 App Store Connect API key>",  "keyId": "<App Store Connect Key ID>",  "issuerId": "<Issuer ID>"}

Include

issuerId

for team keys only, and omit it for an individual key. The API key must have the App Manager role or higher, such as Admin or Account Holder. For Android, store a Google Play service account key as the following JSON entry:


{  "serviceAccountJSON": "<Google service account JSON key>"}

The service account must have the View app information (read only) and Manage store presence permissions.

Import statuses

Each SKU has a status tag:

Status	Description
New	The SKU doesn't exist in your catalog and is ready to import.
Error	The SKU has a missing or invalid required field. Correct the error and try to import again.
Conflict	The SKU already exists in your catalog. Compare the existing and incoming values in the import window, then choose to skip or overwrite.

Deploy a Remote Catalog from the Editor or CLI

You don't have to import a catalog to manage it on the Dashboard. When you deploy a Remote Catalog from the Unity Editor or the CLI, Unity adds those listings to the Unity Dashboard automatically. You can then manage, edit, and deploy them from the Dashboard alongside any catalogs you import.
