April 8, 2025: New Auto-map fields feature for Marketplaces

April 8, 2025

We’ve introduced a new mapping suggestions feature to help make mapping attributes for marketplaces more efficient. The feature bases these suggestions on:

• Currently mapped categories and attributes

• Previously mapped attributes within the same project

How auto-mapping works

Auto-map uses fields you’ve previously mapped that share the same field name and type from other APIs to automatically map categories for you when setting up similar channels.

Example: Selling on Amazon in Germany and the Netherlands

You previously mapped the item_color field to the color attribute in an Amazon channel with Germany set as its region. Later, if you create another Amazon channel with the Netherlands as its region, the auto-map function will use your mapping from the German version to suggest similar fields.

Important: If this is your first API, auto-mapping won’t map any fields as it has no point of reference to base suggestions on.

How to use mapping suggestions

1

In Category-specific attributes

In the Category-specific attributes section in the Build step of your marketplace channel, click Auto-map fields.

2

Review suggested values

We’ll automatically fill empty attributes with suggested matching values if we have any.

3

Save suggestions

Click Save to save the suggested attributes.

Note: Mapping suggestions won’t override attributes you’ve already mapped.

Clearing suggested fields

There are a few ways you can remove suggested fields:

• To clear all suggestions, click Clear all or refresh the page without saving.

• To clear individual attributes, click .
