Setup and Data Examples
For this guide, you'll find a few examples on how to set up the various data feeds that are crucial to feeding Hello Retail with all the relevant data from your webshop. The examples are a part of the General setup — data synchronization requirements guide.
As a general note, it should be stated that the examples below are not requirements. You can name the fields in any way you see fit, and Hello Retail will still be able to work with the data - as long as the file itself is not rendered as invalid, due to structural issues within the format.
