Set a product identifier

Set a product identifier for your site in Productsup.

Introduction

A product identifier is an attribute or a set of attributes you choose as unique identifiers for your products when you set up your data imports in Productsup. A product identifier can be, for example, an SKU, ID, or GTIN. You can select many attributes if none of your attributes alone identifies a product uniquely, for example, title, color, and size.

The product identifier is necessary for specific features to work in Productsup, such as:

  • Monitoring

  • Data Services

  • The Before/After View feature in Data View

  • Delta files

Prerequisites

To add a product identifier, you need:

  • Add a data source and start an import run by selecting Import in the top-right corner of the page.

Add a product identifier

  1. Go to Data Sources from your site's main menu and select the Settings tab.

  2. Choose at least one attribute as a product identifier in the ID Column drop-down menu.

    Choose an attribute that contains unique values for each product and can uniquely identify your products.
