The Product Sourcing settings, explained

These toggles live in the Product Sourcing tab of your Preferences (or Settings on the web dashboard). They control how aggressively Product Upload reads a supplier page.

Setting	What it does	When to use it
Always scrape products	Renders the full page like a real browser instead of using API shortcuts	Wrong currency, missing content, login-walled sites
Send custom cookies when scraping	Attaches your logged-in cookie string to requests	Wholesale and B2B pricing behind a login
Always import using image proxy	Downloads images through our infrastructure	Suppliers that block image hotlinking, or low-res images
Ignore search engine results	Relies only on the product page, not web search	Imports pulling in unrelated or "similar" products

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

When even Always scrape 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.
