Include 'Metafields'
- This is the best way to ensure you are importing the most product data possible
- This enables us to import product metafields which may contain additional product attributes
- Each unique metafield key found is a new field in the import
- Our system will automatically import and add any new fields to the import mapping list
- Before you import, check the import allotment and consider raising it to a more appropriate estimate of your total sku count. Our system will tell you how many total skus were found if your allotment is not high enough to include everything, but setting it higher if needed now will save you time.
- Save -- now you may import your products

Connect 2nd Storefront or other
- The idea is each store will apply to each storefront, so if you have two storefronts that you will need to create another store in GDF.
- Because this is the same store but has multi-storefronts, we will use the same store hash and access token from the first store.
1. Create new store/s in GoDataFeed
*Note: You must have the second or other stores configured in GDF before connecting the app
From Apps or GoDataFeed website > Select Account > Dropdown > Stores
2. Select the new store
3. Add the new store with information > Select the plan you want to start with > Save
Apply charges > Continue
Once your second store is ready. Switch to your first store
Then go to Products > Primary Sources and copy your Store Hash and Access Token
Switch to the second store, paste the Store Hash and Access Token from the first store to the second store. You will need the channel id for this store. Go to Channel Manager in the BigCommerce store, and select the storefront you want to use for this store.
Once you select the storefront, copy the channel id in the URL
And pasted it in the Channel Id box, then hit Save
After you follow all these steps the import will automatically run indicating you have successfully integrated GoDataFeed with multi-storefronts!
