Creating the import file
CSVI uses alias and catid field in order to find the existing Joomla content associated with a product. So to update an existing content you also need to add alias and catid field along with sku field in import file. This way alias and catid fields are used to identify the Joomla article for a J2Store product and sku is used to find the product_id of the J2Store product.
For a new product if there are no title or alias field set in import file then sku field will be used as title and alias and the catid of default category Uncategorised which is 2 is used for Joomla article for a J2Store product.
