Trackier introduces its latest automation feature, Product Feed, wherein a specific brand can share a single CSV file with the publishers of their choice, which would allow them to choose the tracking link for all the products. Publishers can simply download the CSV file present on their interface under 'product feeds' and copy the product's tracking link from it.
Using the product feed feature of Trackier, publishers no longer have to manually generate tracking links for different products.

The information in these files is also updated every 24 hours to reflect any changes in the product feed made by the brand.

You can access the product feed in your panel by going to the e-commerce section in automation. Know more about Trackier's e-commerce integration

​
​For instance, "Message_inbox" is a root element, and "to," "from," and "subject" are its child elements. Please enter root element values with an underscore (_) separation.

If you selected the API, then the required fields to be filled are:
​

​Advertisers: Add your advertiser here.
​

​

The product feeds offered by the advertiser may contain a variety of fields. These fields may have different names in Trackier, such as the ID being referred to as "product ID." In order for the system to properly recognize and generate tracking links, you will need to map the relevant fields with their corresponding Trackier fields in this step.
​
You can also add a sample CSV to map the relevant fields to the Trackier fields. To do this, simply choose CSV mapping at the top, and an option to upload a CSV file will be available.

In this step, you have to map the fields in the product feed to the fields in Trackier.
