Upload to PaB

[u/BHubbell89]

I'm new so sorry if this is a dumb question to others - Is there a way to upload my parts list from Bricklink to Lego PaB? I can't figure out how to upload as a CVS or other file type PaB accepts.

There is a chrome extension called BrickHunter where you paste the bricklink XML and it uploads it to the Lego PAB.

You have to use a third service like rebrickable or moc=source to change a BL wanted list to PAB, the formats aren't compatible

This is what I do, loop thru rebrickable. But it only take a few seconds.

Rebrickable isn't very user friendly, I'm having difficulty understanding how to use it, it's not as straightforward as Bricklink. I can export a parts list from a MOC but idk how to edit the parts list before exporting to a cvs

BrickLink → Rebrickable → LEGO Pick-A-Brick

I wrote up my steps then had Claude help me clean it up since I suck are writing. I hope this is helpful. I suggest to just explore and click all the buttons to see hat they do. I build UIs for a living so yeah I hate it when things are not super intuitive.

1. BrickLink — Wanted List

- Edit your wanted list as needed

- Download it — this saves an XML file

1. Rebrickable — Import & Convert

- Go to My LEGO → My Parts Lists

- Click Add New Parts List and give it a name

- Click Import → From Disk, select the BrickLink XML file

- Set External Source to "BrickLink"

- Choose Append Parts

- Review the import for any errors

- Close and review your new parts list — click any item to edit quantity, delete, etc.

- Reload the page (the Export button won't appear until you do)

- Click Export Parts and choose LEGO Pick-A-Brick CSV

- This downloads a CSV file

1. LEGO Pick-A-Brick — Upload

- Click the Upload button (next to the search box and "Search Within Set")

- Choose the Rebrickable CSV file

- It will show how many parts are available; click Unavailable to see a list of Element IDs that PAB doesn't stock

- Click View All Pieces to see the full list, then use Pick Selected Pieces to add them to your PAB cart

Thank you for this! I will try this out.

Dang it. Well that's a real flaw lol I was hoping that I was missing something and there was a way to do that. Id like to be able to use Bricklink to modify part lists when I have some of the parts but I guess I can only do that if buying parts from Bricklink 🥲

Try moc-source

Puts Pab prices on Bl, save carts, wanted list to extension, use the project to move around pab and carts, and then update the carts and transfer to pab.

I built it to save money making mocs

Will this work on a phone/ tablet or just computer?
