2. How to synchronize Shopify data to Google Merchant Center

  • Merchant ID: After you successfully create the feed, the Merchant ID will be synchronized from the feed and the connection will be displayed in Settings.
  • Primary domain: connected domain information on GMC. If the Merchant ID has been verified, it will display domain information and a connected icon. On the contrary, the error message Not verified will be displayed when that domain has not been verified.

  • Tax settings and Shipping settings are aligned with the selected GMC account when initially creating the feed. Whenever you switch GMC accounts, these settings will adjust accordingly.
    • Click the Sync button to synchronize Tax/Shipping settings from Shopify to the feed. After syncing, the button changes to Re-sync.
    • If you switch your GMC account, the Re-sync button will revert to Sync so you can synchronize settings for the new account.
    • Click on Custom on GMC action to manually configure settings on GMC.

II. Feed Schedule

  • Schedule feed runs on feature:

    • You can set up a schedule to automatically sync feeds between Shopify, Mageplaza App Google Shopping Feed, and Google Merchant Center or not.
    • Syncing frequency options from the drop-down list include Weekly, Daily with 4 times of the day (00:00, 04:00, 08:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00 GMT) or you can choose not to set syncing frequency.

Note: The list of daily times will automatically adapt to the admin's timezone. For example, if you are in GMT +7, your time will be 07:00, 11:00, 15:00, 19:00, 23:00, 03:00 instead.

  • Overwrite the data button:

    • Turn it on if you want to automatically update the feed with the latest product information in your Shopify store and sync it to GMC.
    • Turn it off to automatically update the feed with the latest product information in your Shopify store and sync it to GMC, except for products that have been edited in the feed.
