Duplicate Handle values can merge or overwrite products unexpectedly. CommerceFix checks duplicate handles for free and can generate a repair file package after payment.

What this means

Handle is the product identifier in Shopify CSV files. Duplicate handles can be valid for variants, but risky when unrelated products share the same handle.

Example broken CSV

Handle,Title,Option1 Name,Option1 Value
mug,Ceramic Mug,Title,Default Title
mug,Travel Tote,Title,Default Title

Why it matters before upload

Unexpected duplicates can collapse products, confuse variant rows, or create manual cleanup work.
