Feed Settings
Every feed has its own settings page. To open it, click Feeds, then click the feed’s row (or choose Edit from the row menu for a quick name and market change).
Each card shows a short summary when closed. Open a card, make your changes, and click Save on that card. Changes apply the next time the feed is generated, so click Regenerate when you’re done.
Feed header
Section titled “Feed header”The top of the page shows the feed name, status, format and a Protected badge if feed security is on, plus when it was last generated. The buttons are:
- Regenerate: rebuild the feed now.
- Push to FTP: upload the feed to your server now (only shown when FTP delivery is set up).
- Copy URL: copy the feed URL.
- Preview: open the feed in a new tab (not available for protected feeds).
- Export: download the feed’s settings as a JSON file. See Importing and exporting.
- The trash icon deletes the feed. The feed URL stops working right away.
The stats row shows how many products are ready, how many have errors or warnings, and whether Google Merchant Center is connected or set to auto-upload.
Basic Settings
Section titled “Basic Settings”- Feed Name: a name to help you find the feed.
- Feed Type: a label for your own reference (for example organic or paid). It doesn’t change the feed’s contents.
