Finding the Feeds
Once logged in, the default folder is "uploads". The feeds are in the root directory so you need to navigate to the parent directory.
The feeds are CSV files: one merchant feed per file.
There is a "__rates.csv" file which will always contain the CPC rate for each feed.
Below is a sample of the fields and descriptions of what is available in the feeds.
Field Name | Description |
id | Identifies each product. An ID must be unique for each item in your catalog. If you have multiple feeds, IDs of items across different feeds still need to be unique. |
