Google help centre provides professional and timely assistance in setting up the app with Shopify. They also follow-up your enquiries and ensure if they can provide further help or if actions have been taken to solve any issues.

This app is very poorly developed. It automatically syncs your entire store upon install, thus getting you a merchant center suspension right off the bat for products you don't plan to ship or want to advertise on Google, such as items that go freight. And since the content API (your store products) is synced, it's a time consuming pain to start over and then manually add products you want in merchant center. We have 12000 products and we either have to manually unsync every item or pay for a 3rd party app to edit in bulk, since Shopify will NOT export the google/youtube column. Full of glitches like it showsing free shipping on previews when we do not offer free shipping. Do better google, it should not be this cumbersome to set up. UPDATE: Even with google support, we are going in circles. I removed the data source, unchecked every product from the google sales channel, and it STILL imports every product in Merchant Center. Tech support doesn't read the email chain and just provides the same cut and paste answers. Still frustrated
Hi - sorry for the confusion. We'll update our Help Center to better highlight you should select Manual Product Sync during onboarding if you don't want products to sync right away. In the meantime, if you go to the Products Page in Shopify, and can filter by freight products, the 3 dot menu next to Set As Draft lets you "Exclude from Sales Channels" in bulk. If you have a way to find all of your products (I.e "timpani" in the title, or Type or Tag), then you can quickly exclude from Sales Channel. Since these products aren't able to be checked out on your website or on Google, they'd have to be excluded completely, since even adding a Freight shipping settings would not apply. Additionally, you are syncing Shipping Settings from Shopify automatically as well. This means whatever shipping you set up in Merchant Center manually will get overwritten by the Shipping data in Shopify > Settings > Shipping and Delivery > General Shipping Profile. I'm assuming you'll want to change the Shipping Sync to Manual in order to keep your UPS Ground settings in Merchant Center, since you don't have any General Shipping Rates set up for your market. With an automatic shipping sync, we are getting no shipping rates synced to Merchant Center, which will keep wiping out your manually set shipping settings in Merchant Center. This will ensure that A) Freight Items are excluded from the Google & YouTube App (you'll need to turn Product Sync back to Automatic to make these changes occur) and B) Shipping settings in Merchant Center don't get wiped out since you're missing General Shipping Rates in Shopify today

Our problem is that some things show up on Google, while others show an error. We have seen Google advertise our items as "Out of Stock" when they are in stock. We've tried to change it on Google, but it reverts to OOS. It is very frustrating. Additionally, our shipping is not cookie-cutter shipping. We use freight shipping and require quotes to ship to the customer. Of course, this causes an error in Google, saying our shipping is wrong.
