Simprosys Google Shopping Feed App Setup Guidelines
The first and foremost thing to remember is to never use two feed management apps together for your feed submission process.
There are two sections in this doc:
• Section 1 is for merchants migrating from another app.
• Section 2 is for merchants who are newly submitting their products to Google Merchant Center.
Section 1: If you are migrating from any other Feed Submission App
1.1 Product ID Format
Identify the product ID format that you used in the previous app to submit products to Google Merchant Center and use the same ID format in our app to sync your products. If you use the same ID format in our app then product performance history will not be lost.
If you don’t know the product ID format for your products then contact our support at support@simprosys.com to figure out the ID format.
We provide three ID format options:
❖ Global ID Format (Ex: shopify_US_123456_987654)
❖ SKU as Product ID (Ex: ABCD1234)
❖ Variant ID as Product ID (Ex: 123456789)
If you are using any other ID format than the one mentioned above, you can contact our support at support@simprosys.com.
Please go through this video to understand how to choose sync settings in the Simprosys Google Shopping Feed app.
