October 2022 release notes

According to the Productsup License Agreement, you get access to the platform based on a specific service entitlement. If you exceed your entitlement and overuse the platform, you face additional charges for overages.

The Usage Data Dashboard is now available in your user profile menu to let you monitor your platform usage and transparently manage your charges and overages. The dashboard displays an overview of your platform usage based on the following four (4) metrics that influence your overage calculations:

See Usage Data Dashboard and overage calculations for more information on overage calculations.

The Marketplaces app now offers the option to pause and resume listings submission in the Settings tab of every added marketplace to increase your user autonomy and let you avoid submitting listings where data isn't fully ready.

Marketplaces with a paused listings submission have the status Inactive on the Marketplaces page, while marketplaces with an active listings submission display the status Active.

See Submit listings to your marketplaces.

When you submit your listings in bulk, and some listings are missing the required data, the Marketplaces app shows you a note displaying the number of incomplete products excluded from the submission. This note doesn't block the entire listings submission process. The app sends the listings that have passed data validation to the selected marketplace while excluding only those products that failed the validation.

This note helps you identify how many products require your attention to let you fix their data issues and resubmit.

See Manual listings submission.

A stream is a cloud where internal systems can quickly push your product data updates to import them into Productsup sites via Stream API.

You can now use Stream API to upload your data to one stream and send it to multiple sites simultaneously. You no longer have to create a dedicated stream for each site to upload the same data to multiple sites.

See Stream API at api-docs.productsup.io.

The storage migration for all Platform API users is now complete. The new dedicated storage cluster CEPH-API ensures stable API performance across all platform accounts and is especially useful for large accounts sending millions of SKUs hourly.

We divided platform API users into four buckets:

We have finished migrating all four buckets. We will continue migrating Stream API users to CEPH-API in early 2023. The migration process runs without any disruption to end users.

Wish is an American e-commerce platform for buyer-seller transactions offering an extensive list of products and categories with 27 million active monthly users in 2022.

CJ Affiliate (formerly Commission Junction) is a US-based global affiliate marketing network for advertisers and publishers. Using CJ Affiliate, Productsup customers can promote their products and services with such publishers as BuzzFeed, ShopBack, and CNN.

Productsup has added an export titled Commission Junction (CJ) - API Product Feed to let you send your export feeds to CJ Affiliate using an API. Now, the platform offers both an FTP- and an API-based export capability to send your data to this channel. Using the API export, you can send feed updates to CJ Affiliate more frequently than previously possible with the FTP option.

See Export data feeds for more information on setting up an export.

Productsup export templates offer two (2) Excel destinations:

Both Excel destinations can now generate delta files for all new, changed, unchanged, and deleted products when used with delta exports. This lets you send only the modified product data to your desired export channels instead of sending your entire product catalog every time there is a change in your data.

The destination Excel Spreadsheet (Productsup Server) has received another capability. Now, it supports SFTP:

BMDG (Building Master Data Guideline) is a data exchange format popular among manufacturers and distributors of sanitary products and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) goods.

We have enhanced the platform with the support of BMDG 2.0, the latest version of BMDG. To let you use the latest version of this data exchange format, the platform has eight (8) new export channels compatible with BMDG 2.0.
