There is one column you need to pay attention to, which is the product handle, which is the bridge to help the reviews display properly on the product you want. It should match the handle of the product you want to import the review into.

A2Reviews provides full tools for you to preview your reviews and modify them as you like before importing them into the database and displaying them outside.
Once the reviews have been revised and are as expected we go to the final step to complete the import.
In the last step, you need to pay attention to the option you want. There will be 3 options for you.
Skip: If there is already a product with the same product handle on the system and there is a rating, it will be ignored.

Merge: It will merge both the old reviews and the reviews from the CSV, the total of the reviews will be added from the 2 sources and the data will be preserved.
