Your locations are managed in the Locations page of your dashboard. This guide helps you choose the right method and shows you how to manage locations.
Choose Your Method
Before diving in, pick the method that fits your workflow. Each method handles adding, editing, and deleting differently:
| Situation | Recommended Method |
|---|---|
| Adding or editing a few locations | Dashboard (Manual) |
| Initial setup with many locations | Import from Spreadsheet |
| You have an existing spreadsheet or export from another system | Import from Spreadsheet |
| Locations change frequently and you want automatic updates | Google Sheets Sync |
| Team manages locations in a shared spreadsheet | Google Sheets Sync |
| Developers building custom integrations | Location Management API |
Methods at a Glance
Here's how each method works:
Dashboard (Manual)
Add, edit, and delete locations one at a time directly in your Storepoint dashboard. Best for small location counts or occasional updates.
How editing works: Click any location to open it, make changes, and save.
See detailed instructions below
Import from Spreadsheet
Upload a CSV or Excel file to add many locations at once. Great for initial setup, migrating from another system, or importing from distributor reports and other data sources.
How editing works: Import adds new locations only. To make bulk changes, delete existing locations first, then re-import your updated spreadsheet.
Google Sheets Sync
Connect a Google Sheet and your locator stays automatically updated. Add, edit, or delete rows in your sheet and changes sync to your locator within minutes.
How editing works: Edit directly in your Google Sheet. Storepoint syncs changes automatically.
Read the Google Sheets Sync Guide
Location Management API
For developers building custom integrations. Programmatically create, update, and delete locations.
You can combine Dashboard, Import, and API methods freely. However, Google Sheets Sync is exclusive: when enabled, it becomes your only method for managing locations. All changes must happen in your connected Google Sheet.
Adding & Editing in the Dashboard
For adding or editing a few locations at a time, the dashboard is the simplest option. Everything below happens on the Locations page.
Adding a New Location
Required: Name and Address
Optional: Phone, email, website, description, image, hours, social media links, tags, and custom fields
Click Create Location when you're done and your location will appear on your locator immediately.
Editing a Location
Click any location on the Locations page to open it. You can update all fields. A save button appears when you make changes.
Adjusting the Map Pin
The edit page shows a map with a draggable pin. If the automatic placement isn't quite right, drag the pin to the correct spot. You can also enter exact coordinates.
Adding an Image
When adding or editing a location, click the Upload Image area to upload an image from your computer. The image displays on the location in your locator.
To change or remove an uploaded image, hover over it for options.

Change Log
Available on Business plan
See a history of all changes to the location: what changed, when, and whether it was via dashboard, API, or Google Sheets sync.
Deleting a Location
On the edit page, click the three-dot menu in the top right and select Delete Location.
Finding Locations
Use the search box on the Locations page to find locations by name, address, description, or tags.
Exact phrase: Wrap your search in quotes (e.g., "New York") to match exact text only.
Filter by tag: Click any tag to filter by it. Add multiple tags to narrow results further.
Bulk Actions
On the Locations page, use checkboxes to select multiple locations.
Delete selected: Select locations, then click Delete selected in the bottom bar.
Delete all: Click the More button in the top right and select Delete All Locations.
Deleted locations cannot be recovered. Export your data first if you might need it later.
Exporting Locations
On the Locations page, click the More button and select Export All Locations. This downloads a CSV with all your locations.
Use exports to back up your data, edit in a spreadsheet and re-import, or prepare for Google Sheets Sync.
