      Google Merchant Center API connection

      Improve Google Shopping match rates

      The Merchant Center API connection allows Omnia to collect relevant product
      information that can help to identify product matches at Google Shopping. This
      includes the product name, brand, product URL and other product characteristics.
      Using the Merchant Center API will make sure that the information Omnia has is exactly
      the same as is being advertised on Google, improving our chances to identify the right
      products, while also lowering the effort to provide all this data.

      How to add the Merchant Center API connection:
      1. Add the Omnia service account as a user to your Merchant Center account:
      a. Go to your Merchant Center account.
      b. Go to Account Access in the settings of your Merchant Center account.
      c. Click + Add user and use the service account ID as the email address for
      the new user: 
      Service account ID: 
      merchantcenter@omniaretail.iam.gserviceaccount.com
      d. Provide Standard Access for the service account and set email
      preferences to no emails
      e. Click Add user to save preferences and be returned to the list of users. The
      service account ID should be listed with the chosen user role.

      2. Provide the Merchant Center ID to your Omnia contact person.


      NOTE: If you have multiple Sub-accounts, make sure that you first select the Sub account that corresponds to the specific Omnia portal. Copy the merchant center ID that shows up when you selected the Sub account.
