  1. Choose or Create a Catalog

In the Choose catalog dropdown, you have two options:


Create new catalog (Recommended)

  • FeedNexa will create a new Facebook Product Catalog specifically for your product feed.
  • This avoids conflicts with catalogs created by other apps


Select an existing catalog

You can choose from the list of existing catalogs in your Business Manager.

The list includes:

  • Catalog name
  • Catalog ID (shown in parentheses, e.g., 72172233861193)
  • Catalogs previously created by FeedNexa (usually prefixed with “FeedNexa”)
⚠️ Important:If you select an existing catalog:All synced products will be added directly into that catalog.If a product with the same Content ID already exists, FeedNexa will overwrite (replace) that product.This may affect:Existing Facebook or Instagram shops using that catalogOngoing Dynamic Ads campaignsProduct groups or sets using old data👉 Only choose an existing catalog if you fully understand how it is being used in your ads or shop.
Otherwise, creating a new catalog is the safer option.
