Article ID: SLN19558
Note: This feature is tied to a Google product which is no longer functional. If you use a third-party product feed which will accept the catalog.xml format, you can still utilize this feature. Important note: Merchants who use SiteBuilder for their store will need to enable catalog.xml. Learn more.
In the Enable and Submit your Product Catalogs to Shopping Comparison Engines section, click the Enable radio button next to catalog.xml. Note: If you don't want your catalog used by search engines or comparison shopping engines, choose Enable but do not syndicate.
Click the Done button.
Tip: To view your catalog.xml file, open it using the download link. Note: If your catalog is large enough, clicking the link may cause your web browser to time-out. For large catalogs, right-click the link and save the file to your computer. The file can be opened with a text editor or an XML viewer.
Note: This process is available for Merchant Solutions accounts and not available for Store v.1 accounts.
