To avoid manual creation of products on Tuugo and import all or certain amount of your company products on Tuugo at once, you can use our “Import products” feature in the Control panel of your company on Tuugo.
To import products from RSS feed, you need to complete the following steps:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rss version="2.0">
<channel>
<item>
<!--Product title (required field, up to 100 characters)-->
<title>*Product / Service name</title>
<!--Product unique_number/ID/SKU (required field, up to 20 characters)-->
<unique_number>*Product / Service unique number</unique_number>
<!--Product description (required field, up to 100 characters)-->
<description>*Product Description</description>
<!--Set or Update your own category tree for the Product page-->
<category>Product Category</category>
<subcategory>Product Subcategory</subcategory>
<sub_subcategory>Product Subsubcategory</sub_subcategory>
<!--Product price (numeric value)-->
<price>Product / Service price</price>
<!--Link (to product on your web-site)-->
<link>Link to product / service</link>
<!--Product images links, up to 20 images per one product-->
<images>
<src>Link to your product / service Image 1</src>
<src>Link to your product / service Image 2</src>
...
<src>Link to your product / service Image 20</src>
</images>
<!--Tags (which other users will search your product by, up to 10 keywords)-->
<keywords>
<keyword>Keyword 1</keyword>
<keyword>Keyword 2</keyword>
...
<keyword>Keyword 10</keyword>
</keywords>
</item>
...
<item>
...
</item>
</channel>
</rss>
The fields marked with an * are required and cannot be left blank.
Scroll to the bottom of page where you should set the URL to your XML feed (i.e.: https://static.tuugo.pl/feeds/sample.xml), and set the frequency of the feed updating. If you modify your products on a weekly basis, or daily, you can set it to be updated in 1, 2, 7, 14 or 30 days. By default automatic update is disabled (“Never” is chosen). Once you finish configuring it, click on "Get data now" button.
On the matching step you should set which fields from your RSS feed will correspond to the product fields on Tuugo. Expand the dropdown menu in the right column, which corresponds to fields from your RSS feed, mouseover on any field name in the dropdown and you will see the hint with values of the first 10 rows in your feed. It will help you to match proper fields from your feed with Tuugo fields.
You should set the currency in the dropdown next to “Products price” field on “Match fields” step. The currency defined here will be applied for all the products imported with this feed.
You can easily update products uploaded via RSS feed:
- In the case you have made mistakes during matching you can change the fields correspondence or currency on the “Match fields” step.
- In case if your products prices, names etc. were changed you can upload new RSS feed instead of existing one and products with the same ID/SKU will be updated with corresponding data from new file.
- In case if you want to set/update automatic updates frequency, you need to specify it on the first step of importing, i.e. reload the same RSS feed with specified frequency of automatic updates.
Please note, after new version of feed file uploading:
- Only products with the valid data and filled in all the required fields will be imported
- Products with new unique numbers will be added to the company products list, i.e. products which were not listed in previous feed file version
- Products with the same unique number in previous and new versions of the feed file will be updated with corresponding data from the new file
- Products which are not listed in the new feed file will be removed
Also there is a possibility to delete all the products uploaded via RSS feed at once by clicking “Delete” button at the right of RSS feed name.
Feel free to contact us if you need any assistance by clicking corresponding link on the last step of import process.
