Boredwalk review for Google & YouTube
Dec. 25, 2021
Shopify devs didn't make it possible to actually have your product data read by Google Shopping if you edit product data with a Shopify CSV. It's a "known limitation" that the Google Shopping fields in Shopify CSV will be ignored by the app. You are expected to manually edit product data through this horrible app's UX, one item at a time. Alternatively you can pay for yet ANOTHER app that can actually bulk edit the product data Google requires. They shouldn't have even bothered publishing the app it's so half-baked and there's no plans to actually make the Google Shopping fields in the product CSV usable. Cue unhelpful auto-reply from Shopify that says "thank you for taking the time to share your review of the Google Channel with us. Your feedback is extremely valuable. I'm sorry to hear of the struggles you are facing..." *eye roll*
Hey there, Adil here from Shopify. Thank you for providing that feedback. I'm sorry to hear of that the Google Channel does not meet your needs. I can see how having the capability to edit the fields through the CSV file is important and how it can be more efficient than our current process. I'm going to look into this and follow up with you in an email to open up the lines of communication here so I can see how I can help you further. Adil | Shopify
