Checking affected items in the Rules step

In the Rules step, you might change your item's titles, exclude items or set the category of your items. 

In the top bar above your rule, you can see how many items are affected by your rule. For an overview of the items, click View items.

Check your items before and after you save your rule

In the bar below your rules, you have an overview of the number of items that were in your export before and after you created the rule.

To view the state of your items before this rule is applied, at 'Before this rule', click View items. To view how your items are affected by all previous rules and this rule, at 'After this rule', click View items. 

Check your items with a rule

If you want to check if you have items with no image link for example, you can create a “check-rule”. This rule does not make any changes to your items: 

• IF image_link is empty (condition)
• THEN take all fields and do nothing (action)

The top bar above the rule indicates the number of items that are selected (2 out the 123 items). This means that two items are missing data for the field 'image_link'.

The bar below the rule indicates the number of items affected by this rule, which stays the same because the action type is do nothing.
