The Data Sourcing settings, explained

These toggles live in the Data Sourcing tab of your import options (or Settings on the web dashboard). They control how hard Product Upload works to read a supplier page.

Setting	What it does	When to use it
Always scrape for full details	Renders the full page like a real browser instead of using API shortcuts	Wrong currency, missing content, login-walled sites
Send custom cookies	Attaches your logged-in cookie string to requests	Wholesale and B2B pricing behind a login
Re-host through image proxy	Downloads images through our infrastructure	Suppliers that block image hotlinking, or low-res images
Skip search-engine images	Relies only on the product page, not web search	Imports pulling in unrelated or "similar" products
Rename files to product name	Renames image files after the product	Tidier media library, small SEO win

Start with Always scrape for full details when a site misbehaves. It resolves the majority of sourcing issues on its own.

When even that can't get past a site's protection or login, the Chrome extension usually can, since it captures the page from your real browser session.
