Channel Setup
When connecting the eBay channel in Shoppingfeed you will be asked to Allow Access to your eBay Seller Account/eBay Store.
Then you will be prompted to complete the Setup/Categorization page before actually being able to access the eBay channel dashboard.
Shoppingfeed supports all eBay marketplace categories except for eBay Motors.
The list of available eBay categories.
AutoTag
Make sure all the required fields are fulfilled with some static/dynamic values. Once added, these values will get auto-assigned to all products under that specific category.
- For a Size attribute, it is recommended to use the field called {autotag_size}.
- For a Color attribute, it is recommended to use the {autotag_color} field.
- The Type attribute has recently become mandatory so make sure you add a value for this one too.
Field Mapping
By default, the field mapping is pre-installed for the eBay channel in Shoppingfeed.
However, you will require the following eBay Business Policies (Return, Shipping & Payment) in your eBay Seller account:
- ReturnProfileID
- ShippingProfileID
- PaymentProfileID

2. Once you're ready to send your test item on eBay, click on the Update button to initiate a manual eBay channel update.
