Using a pre-defined template when in new listing upload

[brakecrafters]

I would like to standard my product descriptions for certain categories using the description template.  When I am revising a listing individually, under "DESCRIPTION" I have the option of selecting a template with standard text for each item.  Is it possibly to select a template when using upload "revise" template?  I know I can cut and paste the HTML code from the template into the excel sheet and upload it that way, but if I can call the template name, it seems easier.

Background:  The new Unified Lister includes a "Custom Template" droplist on the description editor, where a seller can create and reused chunks of text or HTML. The Custom template is available on both the standard editing view and on the HTML view.

eBay's spreadsheet uploader within Seller Hub has no option to include a custom template. You would have to manually add your custom HTML to the Description field in the spreadsheet.

However, eBay's bulk editor within Seller Hub does have an option to Add a chunk of text to an existing description, as does the spreadsheet uploader.

Within a spreadsheet, The AddToItemDescription Action would be used to revise existing listings, rather than using the Revise Action.

Action,ItemID,Description

AddToItemDescription,123456789012,"<br><b>Please measure carefully to ensure this item fits.</b>"

Another option is to use spreadsheet rules. Create different custom templates on a spreadsheet page, name each template row, and then use VLOOKUP or similar instruction to pull in those templates based on the short name you include in your listing spreadsheet. Use a concatenation option if appending boilerplate to existing text.
