De koppeling tussen Shopify en Google Shopping werkt tot nu toe erg prettig. De installatie was eenvoudig en de producten worden netjes gesynchroniseerd. We zijn nog bezig met optimaliseren, maar het dashboard geeft goede inzichten en helpt om structuur aan te brengen. Ideaal voor startende webshops die willen groeien via Google.

It is so disappointing to see a brand like Google coming up with this kind of an app. It is not for shopify store owners at all. Everything is extremely complicated and creates a headache. I have no idea what am I doing wrong and google support is robotic. They keep pointing us to articles after articles to read. This has become such a big headache. Not user friendly, not helpful, definitely not DIY. I have two stores and as soon as I connect the other store my current store becomes unapproved. I connect my other store to a new account, it says you already have an account and cannot open a new one. I just gave up after 3 months of wasting tuime and effort. Horrible.
Hi - sorry you ran into some issues. The app is built to only connect one Merchant Center account to one Shopify Store. This is why when you connected the second store, it disconnected the first one. It will switch the store connection to the more recent click you did. I wasn't able to find any cases under your most recent Merchant Center ID that you may have submitted to support, so you could try sending a case to our pp Support. It's possible you submitted a ticket to Merchant Center or another area that doesn't manage the Google & YouTube App specifically. https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app Feel free to submit a ticket to us and include the two Shopify IDs you have, and which merchant center IDs you want to connect them to

The newest update of this app has caused a lot of products for our business. We used to be able to easily filter before bulk editing products - specifically Google metafields (color, size, age group, and gender) for apparel. We could filter by vendor or active/draft or sort by created and products with issues were an entire category that we could edit separately. However, since the past updates - we can now only edit all of our products at once (which we have over 10,000 so it is impossible to work with anymore.)
Hi - this sounds like you're using the Products page Search & Filter functionality, and also the Bulk Editor, which is in Shopify and not a tool of the Google & YouTube App. I'd recommend submitting a ticket to Shopify about the missing filter options and the bulk editor limitations. The Google & YouTube app doesn't own these pages and we haven't had a major app update that would have changed any of our metafields, so I think it was a Shopify update you're talking about.

I'd love to use this app, but like most stores, my product ids in Google Shopping are not Shopify product ids - they existed before they were on Shopify. Without being able to choose which field acts as the item id, this app is useless. Even if you don't use the Google Shopping features, it will not record conversions correctly either because the product ids will be different. I can't change the product ids in Google Shopping, as then I'll lose years of data on those items. Simple fix would make this app great
Hi! Thanks for the suggestion. We initially built the app to use the default Shopify ID export format for two reasons: 1) It would cover the most merchant use cases since very few customize their Shopify IDs past the default product_variant format and 2) Due to how Google treats every variant as its own product, we needed a consistent way to transform Shopify Products into Google variant offers, and this was a guaranteed unique product format that would match across systems. We have investigated allowing merchants to select an export format, but ultimately this may cause more problems with products merging in Google if they aren't selecting a unique identifier. For example, Shopify does not validate or enforce your SKU to be unique across your store, so this could cause major problems when we kept updating the price of your TV based on the duplicated SKU of your pencil. Additionally, this would imply that changing the product ID option in Shopify would update the products in Google, which isn't the case -- once a Product ID is set in Google, it is unable to be changed. Sorry this app won't be able to help you with your current Product IDs - we do have a lot of merchants ending up doing a one time switch to the new product ID formats since it tends to integrate better overall using the default Shopify Product IDs, but I understand it would not work in your case.
