Is there a way to load multiple items together on in-app billing section on itunes connect dashboard (for example with a .csv file like Android)?

You can use the Application Loader to mass import in app purchases: https://itunesconnect.apple.com/docs/UsingApplicationLoader.pdf

Read the "Creating a Package from a File" section on page 15:

You can create a package containing the In-App Purchase you want to submit to iTunes by importing details from an Application Loader file and adding and editing the metadata. When creating a package from a file, be sure to use the Application Loader template. To get a copy of the template, choose File > Open App Import Template in Application Loader 2.9. Application Loader creates the AppFileImportTemplates folder containing the AppMassImportTemplate.txt template. To always have an original version of the template file, be sure to make a copy of the template before editing.

  • Hi, thanks for your help. I need also the screenshots for any item but I'm wondering what kind of image I have to use. A screenshot of single item? A screenshot of popup? – CeccoCQ Jul 01 '14 at 07:16
  • Usually a screenshot of how the user can buy the item is enough – Cornelius Jul 01 '14 at 07:22
  • Ok, for example I can submit a screenshot with a list of items, which each row is a couple of title-price text and a button to buy the item? – CeccoCQ Jul 01 '14 at 07:35

    Yes. Also implement the "Restore purchases" functionality, I got rejected before for not having that in the app :) – Cornelius Jul 01 '14 at 08:44
  • Why I need the "Restore purchases" functionality? If I simply request the status at Apple server (bought- not bought) on demand when user clicks on single item, are there problems? – CeccoCQ Jul 01 '14 at 08:51
  • Hm, maybe that's enough, not sure. You can read about restoring here, if you don't already know that: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/StoreKitGuide/Chapters/Restoring.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008267-CH8-SW9 – Cornelius Jul 01 '14 at 08:58

    Application loader no longer has the feature to upload a bulk, the button for import in the latest releases doesn't exist. Are there any alternatives? – coder May 23 '18 at 10:17
