Adflow retrieves product data from a product feed, which is simply a text file with information about your products.

We need a URL directing to your product feed so we can update your product information every day.

You may already have access to a supported feed if you use Dynamic Product Ads on Facebook or Google Shopping.

Here's how to find the feed URL:

Find a feed URL on Facebook:

  1. Click on the desired feed

  2. Click on data sources

  3. Find the correct source and copy the link from the last updated column

Find a feed URL in Google

  1. Click on the desired feed

  2. Go to settings

  3. Click on 'fetch schedule' and copy the URL listed under 'file URL'

Are you using Channable?

What if I still need to get a product feed?

You usually need to install a plugin or use a product feed export tool to get a product feed.

With a good product feed plugin or tool, you can customize and improve your product feed to fully utilize all the capabilities in Adflow.

These are our recommendations:

Shopify

For Shopify, we recommend using the plugin from Flexify or AdWords Robot.
​

If you have less than 1000 products, Flexify is a great, free solution that can meet your needs. However, note that the free version does not allow you to include discounted prices in your feed.

AdWords Robot has no free plan, but it works better than many other tools and is relatively inexpensive.

Feed management tools are also an excellent universal solution. See the section 'Other systems and feed management tools'.

Woocommerce

We recommend using CTX Feed for WooCommerce. This free and open-source plugin can be used to create product feeds. You can find more free feed plugins in the WordPress plugin directory.

Feed management tools are also an excellent universal solution. See the section 'Other systems and feed management tools'.

Other systems and feed management tools

For other systems such as Magento, Lightspeed, and more, we recommend looking at tools like DataFeedWatch and Channable. They offer paid subscriptions that can meet different needs.

The advantage of these tools is that they are also suitable for linking your products to marketplaces.
