Example alert email
The alert emails list which (new) problems exist in which merchant center. Here is an example with a price discrepancy between feed and website:
Clicking on the link in the "merchantCenter" column will take you directly to the corresponding Merchant Center.
Clicking on the link in the "productId" column will take you to the product page in question in the online store.
By clicking on "Google Ads Account" you are immediately in the Google Ads account of Demo AG.
Example script configuration
Link to the demo configuration sheet for MerchantCenterMonitor.
Configuration
- The Google account used to execute the script must also have access to the
Merchant Center! Unfortunately, theGoogle Ads interface only shows who created thescript - but this is irrelevant and may differ from the Google account with which the script is executed hourly. - In the "accountSettings" sheet, you must specify the
merchant ID(s) for eachGoogle Ads account. If a Google Ads account uses multiple Merchant Centers, please specify the Merchant Center IDs as an array.
For example: 123456789,2222222
If one or more merchant centers are contained in an advanced account (a different merchant center ID is shown in the top right-hand corner than in the top left-hand corner), then both numbers must be entered with > in between. The actualmerchant center ID is on the right and the ID of themanaging merchant center is on the left.
For example: 1111111111>123456789,1111111111>2222222
