First Export out all products to a file (make sure to check the "Include Related Data") which will give you a master list of all products and attributes.  Then add /modify the values for those required product details.

Walmart has specific requirements on the size, type, url location of the main vs additional "swatch" images. Incorrect Images will cause listing errors. Please check this link for detailed information, and also this Walmart link Walmart Image Requirements.
