XML feed check for Skroutz, BestPrice and Shopflix.
Selling in Greece means listing on Skroutz, BestPrice and Shopflix, and each one reads your products from an XML feed. Upload your eshop's XML and see in seconds what's missing or wrong: required fields, price format, availability, EAN, duplicate IDs. The check runs in your browser, and the file isn't uploaded anywhere.
Or paste the XML content
that has a few mistakes on purpose.
WHAT IT CHECKS
Required fields
ID, title, link, image, category, price, availability, manufacturer, and whatever each one asks for on top: MPN, EAN, VAT and quantity for Skroutz; weight, colour and shipping time for Shopflix.
Prices and VAT
The price including VAT in the format each one expects, without € or spaces, and VAT from 0 to 100.
Availability
Whether the value is one each marketplace recognises, or one it will map on its own.
EAN and duplicate IDs
Whether the barcode's check digit is right, and whether the same ID appears on two products.
Links and images
Links over https, and images in a format that's accepted.
Titles and descriptions
The manufacturer in the title, not all in capitals, no «ΠΡΟΣΦΟΡΑ» (offer), no HTML, and for Shopflix a description of up to 1,000 characters.
QUESTIONS
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Your browser reads the XML, and the check runs on your computer. We don't see or keep anything.
Can I enter the feed's URL instead of the file?
No, because most servers don't let another site read their files. Open the link, save the file and upload it here.
If it passes, will every product show up?
The check tells you whether the XML follows the specification. Whether and when a product appears is up to the marketplace, which also checks the images and a sample of your eshop's pages.
Can I send the same XML to Shopflix?
Usually not. Skroutz and BestPrice accept any field names you like, as long as the data is there. Shopflix wants its own file, inside <MPITEMS>, with exactly the names in its guide (sku, url, price, shipping_lead_time…). So if you check one XML for Skroutz and Shopflix together, you'll see many Shopflix errors.
Does it check Public too?
Not yet. The check follows the specifications that Skroutz, BestPrice and Shopflix publish.
Can you build a correct feed for us?
Yes. We build feeds for each marketplace from your eshop or Odoo that update on their own. See marketplaces & XML feeds, and what each field needs in the Skroutz feed guide.
WANT US TO FIX IT?
Put the link to your XML in the form and tell us which marketplace gives you trouble. We'll tell you what we'd change so every product goes in correctly.
