Export Products Via Datafeeds

The Export page (formerly Submit to Shopping Comparison Sites Page) lets you create and download spreadsheets containing all of your product data. These spreadsheets are intended for use with shopping comparison and the available formats conform to a particular third-party's software. You are also able to manipulate our master datafeed to conform to the criteria of any site we do not offer a specific datafeed for.

How to Use:

1. Under the Inventory heading click on the Export link
2. From the list supplied, select the store for which you would like to create and download a datafeed by clicking Create Datafeed. It may take a few minutes for the system to create your datafeed.
   • Note: Status indicates whether your datafeed is ready for download. While it says Pending your datafeed is still being created. To update the status, you might have to navigate to another page and come back in a couple of minutes.
3. Once the Status has changed from Pending to Completed you can download the datafeed. Simply click the Download link for the datafeed.
4. The datafeed is downloaded as a zipped spreadsheet. You will need to decompress the spreadsheet before you attempt to upload it to the appropriate software. You can do this with Windows' built-in unzipper, or with a third-party unzipper (such as WinZip or 7-Zip).
5. Upload the unzipped spreadsheet to the appropriate service. Some services, may require that you download proprietary software before you can use it. Follow their on-site instructions to complete the upload.
