Overview
How Critiqo feed onboarding works
You provide your feed by URL or file. We validate structure, mapping, and data quality, configure imports, and share the go-live window. After that, sync runs in stable production mode.
STEP 01
Onboarding
Register your shop and define your feed channel.
STEP 02
Schema check
Field validation for required keys and value ranges.
STEP 03
Mapping
Categories, brands, and availability are mapped for import.
STEP 04
Go-live
Final sign-off and start of regular synchronization.
Supported formats
CSV, XML, or JSON
Use the format that best fits your commerce stack. For high update frequency, use a feed URL or scheduled API job at least daily.

Data quality
Quality checks before import
Consistent required fields
No empty IDs, no missing URLs, and no negative prices.
Fresh status data
Availability and price should be synchronized at least once daily.
Clean landing pages
Each product_url should point to the exact PDP, not to a category page.
Image quality
Recommended: at least 800x800 px, neutral product image, no watermark.
Important: If product IDs change between updates, records are treated as new products. Keep IDs stable.
