Assigning Attributes Using Bulk Edit Feature

In this article, we will explore how to assign attributes to products using the bulk edit feature of the Google Shopping feed app by Sim Prosis. Assigning attributes to products can be a challenging task, especially when dealing with a large catalog. However, with the help of the bulk edit feature, this process can be streamlined and optimized.

Syncing Products with the App and Merchant Center

Before we begin assigning attributes, it is important to ensure that your products are synced with the app and Google Merchant Center. Once the synchronization is complete, you can proceed with making edits to the attributes of your products.

Editing Attributes in One by One Manner

The app allows you to edit the attributes of your products in a one by one manner. When you land on the "Manage Products" page, you will see a list of your products. You can use the filtering options such as product type and gender to reach a specific group of products. From there, you can make edits to the attributes individually.

Using Filtering and Bulk Edit Facility

Alternatively, you can use the filtering and bulk edit facility of the app to make edits to multiple products at once. By selecting the desired products and clicking on "Do Edits in Bulk," you will be presented with several options of attributes that you can work on. This feature is especially useful when optimizing attributes for a large catalog.

Filtering Options and How They Work

In this section, we will explore the different filtering options available in the Google Shopping feed app and understand how they work.

Product Type and Gender Filtering

One of the filtering options available is product type and gender filtering. By applying filters based on product type and gender, you can narrow down the list of products to a specific category. For example, applying the filter of product type "Jeans" and gender "Women" will display all products with the product type "Jeans" and the gender "Women" in the product title.

Search Bar Filtering

Another useful filtering option is the search bar filter. This filter allows you to search for specific keywords within the attributes of your products. For example, searching for "Backpack" will return all products that have the word "Backpack" in their attributes. You can further refine your search by applying additional filters to narrow down the results.

Assigning Google Product Category to Products

Assigning the appropriate Google product category to your products is crucial for effective product categorization and visibility. In this section, we will explore how to assign the Google product category to your products using the bulk edit feature.

Searching and Assigning Categories to Products

To assign the Google product category to your products, you can use the search feature within the app. By typing relevant keywords into the search bar, you can find the specific category that applies to your products. Once you have found the category, you can assign it to the selected products.

Applying Edits to Products in Bulk

The bulk edit feature allows you to apply edits to multiple products at once. After selecting the products, you can choose the attribute you want to edit, such as the Google product category, and apply the changes in bulk. This saves time and effort, especially when dealing with a large number of products.

Applying Edits to Different Product Categories

In this section, we will explore how to apply edits to different product categories using the bulk edit feature.

Applying Edits to Bags

If you want to make edits to bags, you can apply the appropriate filters, such as product type "Bags" and gender "Women." Once you have filtered the products, you can select them and make bulk edits, such as assigning the Google product category.

Applying Edits to Jackets

To make edits to jackets, you can apply the filter of product type "Jackets." This will display all products that fall under the jacket category. You can then make bulk edits to assign the Google product category to these products.

Applying Edits to Ties

To make edits to ties, you can use the search bar filter to search for the keyword "Tie." This will display all products that have the word "Tie" in their attributes. You can select these products and make bulk edits to assign the appropriate Google product category.

Applying Edits to Earrings

For editing earrings, you can apply the filter of product type "Earrings." This will display all products that fall under the earrings category. You can select these products and make bulk edits to assign the Google product category.

Assigning Other Attributes

Apart from the Google product category, there are other attributes that you can assign to your products. In this section, we will explore how to assign age group, custom label values, and filter products according to tags.

Assigning Age Group to Products

Age group is a required attribute for apparel products. To assign the age group attribute to your products, you can apply the appropriate filters, such as product type "Earrings," and select the products you want to edit. You can then make bulk edits to assign the age group attribute, such as selecting "Adult."

Assigning Custom Label Values

Custom label values can be assigned to products to provide additional information or categorization. To assign custom label values, you can select the products and make bulk edits. For example, you can assign a custom label value of "High Margin" to jacket products to indicate their profitability.

Filtering Products According to Tags

Filtering products according to tags can be a useful way to categorize and manage your products. By applying the appropriate filters based on tags, you can narrow down the list of products to a specific group. Although the app does not provide a drop-down option for selecting tags, you can type the first few characters of the tag to filter the products.

Conclusion

In this article, we have explored how to assign attributes to products using the bulk edit feature of the Google Shopping feed app. By syncing your products with the app and Merchant Center, editing attributes in a one by one manner or using the bulk edit facility, and applying filters and making bulk edits, you can optimize and streamline the process of assigning attributes to your products. Remember to assign the appropriate Google product category, age group, and other attributes to enhance the visibility and categorization of your products. Happy editing!
