Lesson 1: Import your product catalog

Configuring your product catalog in GoDataFeed

Required

• Primary source - configure your primary source using product import setup guides

  • Importing products from a shopping cart platform

    We have built integrations with many shopping cart platforms so that you can easily import your products. Simply follow the instructions found in our help center to get set up.

  • Importing products from FTP/HTTP

    We also accept .csv, .txt, and .xml file formats via an HTTP link or from an FTP. Simply provide the address to your file or upload a file to your GoDataFEed FTP. We host an FTP username and password at ftp.godatafeed.com for each GoDataFeed store. Learn more about your store's GoDataFeed FTP details. You will need to upload your files to the FTP location using an FTP client such as Filezilla.
