Configuring the extension
A few steps to quickly set up and optimize your product feeds.
The Advanced Product Feeds extension allows you to generate and export product feeds to various marketplaces, comparison shopping engines, and advertising platforms. After installation, follow these steps to configure it:
1. Create a new feed
Start by creating a new feed using one of the pre-set templates. During this process, you can:
- Select the feed format (XML, CSV, TXT, etc.).
- Configure product filters to include only specific items.
- Define the feed delivery method (FTP, SFTP, Google Merchant, etc.).
- Set up automatic feed updates.
We recommend reviewing the available feed templates to speed up the setup process.
2. Optimize feed content
Ensure your feed contains all required product attributes for the target platform. Use Dynamic attributes to customize data fields and Category mapping to match marketplace requirements.
3. Apply product filtering
To include only relevant products in your feed, use the Filtering feature. Applying filters helps prevent unnecessary data from being exported and ensures only high-quality, relevant listings are included.
4. Automate feed updates
Set up a Scheduled task to update feeds at scheduled intervals, ensuring your listings always reflect current inventory, prices, and promotions.
5. Track performance
Monitor feed exports using the Feed report section to track clicks, orders, and revenue generated from your feeds.
Once you complete these steps, your first product feed will be ready for export! Check the respective sections of this manual for more details.
