10. Enter URL 1
The system analyzes the data feed to discover all its properties (columns).

13. Let the System
Sweat
For You!

14. Data Feed Set Up
Enter XML URL address and press 'Get Data'

15. Data Feed Set Up Define 'Unique Identifier 'and 'Product Name'
Each ad version has to have a unique value by which it will be identified in the XML. The data feed field which holds this information needs to be entered in the ‘Unique Identifier’ field.
The Product Name does not have to be unique per version. If for example the product is Coffee Table, and the XML contains several ad version with this same product, but with different text or background – all these versions can have the same product name. What is important to remember is that the reports are aggregated by product name. Thus, if you want to have a separation in the reports between different ad versions – they should carry different names.
Define 'Unique Identifier 'and 'Product Name'
Note: Data in analytics is aggregated by Product Name.

16. Data Feed Set Up Map between data feed columns and Smart Items
Data from the XML needs to be directed to each of the smart items that exist in the ad.
Select the field in each version which contains the information that should go into the appropriate smart item.
Note: Images may be hosted by the advertiser. In such cases, the feed will contain a URL which should be mapped to the appropriate image item in our system. If MM will host the images – the URL will be ours (CD will provide it).
Map between data feed columns and Smart Items

17. Data Feed Set Up Check this to disable incompatible versions
Select this checkbox if you want to disable incompatible versions (i.e., versions that exceed the allowable guidelines as defined in the Workshop). For example, if the number of characters in the Data Feed exceeds the number defined for its smart item.
Check this to disable incompatible versions
(Available only for text smart items).
