Filter rules allow you to manage which products you include in each feed.

Important information regarding filter rules: 

  • Create product filter rules to include only a subset of your store’s products

  • An unfiltered feed includes all products from your product catalog unless you manually exclude them on the product validation page

  • Filter rules are executed according to their sequence

  • When a rule is executed, products that do not meet the rule conditions are removed from the feed

  • The order of your filters is important because filters remove products when the rule is executed, meaning the next rule cannot include a product that was already excluded

  • You can manually exclude or include individual skus on the product validation page

  • You may also filter products globally at the product catalog import level using import filters

To apply filter rules:

  1. Go to the Feeds tab from the left navigation
  2. Select the desired feed template
