How to Upload XML Code to BrickLink
- Open the .rtf file containing XML code.
- Copy the entire contents of the text starting with “<INVENTORY>”.
- Go to https://bricklink.com.
- Create an account on BrickLink if you don’t have one yet. Make sure you’re signed in.
- In the drop-down menu options under your profile, select “My Wanted Lists”.
- There will be several tab options in your ‘Wanted Lists’ section; select “Upload”.
- Select the sub-tab “Upload BrickLink XML format”. Then, under the ‘Add to:’ drop-down menu, choose “Create New Wanted List” and give it a name.
- Paste the entire text you copied in Step 2.
- Click “Proceed to verify Items”; at this point you should see the list of parts you need to purchase.
- You can now buy all the parts you need by selecting this newly created wanted list from your My Wanted Lists section and either choosing the ‘Easy Buy’ button or clicking into the wanted list and choosing ‘Buy All’ for more cart-creation options (e.g. limiting sellers/stores to only those from your country, etc.).Pro tip: If you have multiple models you’re shopping for (e.g. gun and display stand and display plaque), it’s highly recommended you upload all their parts to the same Wanted List so that you can more easily combine them into the smallest possible number of shopping carts / stores / orders placed at the same time for less expensive shipping.
If you encounter any parts errors (for example, parts 3062b, 3068b, 3069b and/or 3070b) when trying to upload your parts list code to BrickLink, open the text file with XML code in a text editor app, search for those codes (Command+F or Ctrl+F) and delete the ‘b’ or other add-on letter in each code. If you encounter any further issues, please contact me.
