Product feed format and fields

BerryPath imports product data from CSV, XML and JSON. Your field names may differ from the examples, as long as you map them after import.

Where to use this

Use this page when you prepare a feed for Product data.

• Add or upload the feed in Product data -> create or open a dataset -> Source.
• Connect fields in Product data -> open a dataset -> Mapping.
• Check examples in Properties and Products after import.

Required fields

Useful extra fields

Add Image, Price, Sale price, Label, Review rating, Review count and Position when available.

For matching, include fields visitors choose on: category, brand, use case, size, color, material, compatibility, stock status or collection.

CSV example

sku,name,price,stock,category,url,image_url,brand
PLANT-001,"Monstera Deliciosa",34.95,42,"Indoor plants",https://example.com/monstera,https://example.com/monstera.jpg,Example Nursery
PLANT-002,"Ficus Lyrata",49.95,18,"Indoor trees",https://example.com/ficus,https://example.com/ficus.jpg,Example Nursery

Map sku to Product ID, name to Title, url to URL, image_url to Image, price to Price and brand or category to Label.

XML example

<products>
  <product>
    <id>PLANT-003</id>
    <title>Calathea Orbifolia</title>
    <url>https://example.com/calathea</url>
    <image_url>https://example.com/calathea.jpg</image_url>
    <price>24.95</price>
    <brand>Example Nursery</brand>
  </product>
</products>

Google Merchant fields such as g:id, g:title, g:link, g:image_link, g:price and g:brand are also supported.

JSON example

{
  "products": [
    {
      "id": "PLANT-004",
      "title": "Pilea Peperomioides",
      "url": "https://example.com/pilea",
      "image_url": "https://example.com/pilea.jpg",
      "price": 18.95,
      "brand": "Example Nursery",
      "categories": ["Indoor plants", "Easy care"]
    }
  ]
}

Keep the structure stable so mappings do not need to be repaired after each import.

Translated and market feeds

Use translated feeds for local titles, labels and URLs. Use the same Product IDs as the source feed.

id,title,label,url
PLANT-001,"Monstera Deliciosa","Zimmerpflanzen",https://example.de/monstera

Use market feeds when a webshop needs local availability, pricing or product URLs. If Product IDs differ, create a separate source dataset.

Check after import

Check Mapping, Properties, Products and Import history. Missing images, prices or titles usually mean the mapping points to the wrong field.
