Downloading feeds
There are two ways you can download feeds:
- In the UI using Create-a-Feed (described on this page)
- Downloading a file using the Product Feed List Download
Using Create-a-Feed
1. Choose Create-a-Feed from the Toolbox menu.
2. Select the language. Only feeds and products in this language will then appear.

5. Click Next to go to the Column Selection page.
6. On the Column Selection page, you can choose individual columns or choose Select All to get all columns.
You can choose individual columns to add to the download URL. Hover over the name to see a short description.
Or simply click on Select All to get all columns offered on the platform.
