How to View Feed History for API and XML Feeds in Feedomix

How Does Feed History Work?





Feed History allows you to review the previous feed generation runs for a specific Feed Project.


It helps you check whether a feed was generated successfully, when the process started and finished, how many variants were synced to Google Merchant Center, and access the generated XML feed when applicable.


Feed History displays:


  • Sr No
  • Status
  • Started
  • Finished
  • GMC Sync (Variants)
  • Output


The information displayed depends on the selected feed method.


How to Open Feed History


  1. Open Feedomix from your Shopify Admin.
  2. Click Feed Projects from the left sidebar.
  3. Locate the required Feed Project.
  4. Click the three-dot menu under Actions.
  5. Select Feed History.
  6. The Feed History page opens for the selected project.


The page displays the latest feed generation history for that project.


Understanding the Recent Feed Runs Table


The Recent Feed Runs section displays the history of feed generation activities.


Sr No


Displays the serial number of each feed generation run.


The latest run appears at the top of the list.


Status


Displays the result of the feed generation process.


Successful: The feed generation process completed successfully.


Failed: The feed generation process did not complete successfully.


Started


Displays the date and time when the feed generation process started.


Finished


Displays the date and time when the feed generation process finished.


The Started and Finished times are displayed according to your Shopify store timezone.


GMC Sync (Variants)


Displays the number of product variants synced to Google Merchant Center compared with the total number of variants.


For example:


26/26 means 26 out of 26 variants were synced.


This column displays the sync information for API feed projects.


For XML feed projects, this column may display a dash (-).


Output


Displays the available output actions for the feed generation run.


The available options depend on the selected feed method.


For API feed projects, this column may display a dash (-).


For XML feed projects, the available actions can include:


  • Open feed
  • Copy feed URL


How to View API Feed History

  8. Check GMC Sync (Variants) to review the number of synced variants.

If GMC Sync (Variants) displays 26/26, it means all 26 variants were synced to Google Merchant Center during that run.


The Output column may display a dash (-) for API feed projects.

How to Understand Feed Generation Results


Feed History helps you review the result of each feed generation run.


Successful API Feed Run


A successful API feed run indicates that the feed generation process completed successfully.


The GMC Sync (Variants) column displays the number of variants synced compared with the total number of variants.


For example, 27/27 indicates that all 27 variants were synced.


Successful XML Feed Run


A successful XML feed run indicates that the XML feed was generated successfully.


The Output column provides options to open the generated feed or copy its URL.


The GMC Sync (Variants) column may display a dash (-).


Important: A successful feed generation does not guarantee that every product has been approved by Google Merchant Center.


Store Timezone


The Feed History page displays the store timezone below the project title.


The Started and Finished columns use this timezone to display the feed generation date and time.


For example, if the store timezone is America/New_York, the displayed timestamps follow that timezone.


Important Notes
