# Sync Products to Pinterest
# Sync Products to Pinterest
Omega Feed helps you create a structured XML feed URL to export your Shopify products to **Pinterest Catalogs**.
* **XML Feed Only:** The app generates a dynamic feed URL. You can copy this link and paste it into your **Pinterest Business Center** to upload your catalog.
* **API Sync Notice:** Please note that Omega Feed does not support a direct API connection for **Pinterest** yet.
**📍 Navigation:** From Shopify Admin: `Sidebar` → `Omega Feed` → `More channels` → `Pinterest`
# 🛠️ Step-by-Step Feed Setup
### Step 1: Getting Started
* On the `Pinterest` tab, click `Create feed now`
* Or `Create new feed` if you already have existing feeds.
### Step 2: Configure Feed Settings
1. `Feed name`**:** Enter a clear name for your feed (up to 50 characters) so you can easily recognize it in your list.
2. **Target Market Settings**
* **Use store default settings:** Automatically applies your primary Shopify store's domain, country, currency, and language.
* **Target a specific market:** Manually select your target *Market, Country, Currency, and Language* (Requires a Scale plan or above; supports product translation integrations).
3. **Product & Variant Selection**
**Product source:** Choose to sync your
* **All products**
* Filter by **Products from collections**
* Group by **Products in specific tags**, or **Pick individual products** one by one (Requires a Scale plan or above)
**Variant selection:** Decide whether to export **All variants** of a product or the **First variant only**.
4. Schedule Auto-Sync
Configure how frequently the app should automatically update your feed:
Set your preferred interval frequency:
* **Weekly**
* **Daily** (Requires a Scale plan or above)
* **Hourly** (Requires a Scale plan or above)
5. Availability Rules
Control your feed based on product stock status:
* **Skip out-of-stock products:** Check this option to automatically remove sold-out products from your feed.
| How it works: When an item runs out of stock, it is removed from the feed. When it becomes available again (in stock), the app automatically adds it back to the feed.
# Step 4: Preview & Finalize Feed
This last step shows a full summary of your settings and a quick preview of your products before you sync them.
1. Review Setup Summary
Each section includes an **Edit** link that lets you return directly to the corresponding configuration step to apply updates:
* `Products`**:** Displays the selected product sources (e.g., *All products*).
* `Schedule`**:** Shows the configured synchronization interval and execution time (e.g., *Weekly - 16:45*).
* `Market`**:** Displays the targeted localized market and currency pairing (e.g., *US - USD*).
* `Mapping fields`**:** Indicates the exact number of attributes currently mapped to Pinterest attributes (e.g., *27 mapped*).
* `Language`**:** Specifies the configured feed language dialect (e.g., *en*).
* `Custom rules`**:** Lists active rule logic applied to modify standard catalog behavior (e.g., *No rules*).
2. Live Product Preview
Below the summary, product cards show your items as they will appear on **Pinterest Business Center**, including the image, name, price, and stock status.
**Product Details Review:** Click on any product card to open the **"Fields sent to your feed"** window.
This shows the exact product details that will be sent to **Pinterest Business Center,** divided into two main groups:
* **Essential Fields:** Shows basic information like `ID`, `Title`, `Description`, `Availability` (e.g., *in\_stock*), `Condition`, `Brand`...
* **Media:** Shows the main `Image link` and other product images hosted on Shopify.
3. Save and Sync Buttons
After checking your preview, choose one of the options at the bottom-right corner:
* `Done Setup`**:** Saves your current configuration without generating the link right away. The app will automatically generate your XML feed URL later based on your auto-sync schedule.
* `Sync`**:** Saves your configuration and generates your XML feed URL immediately.
# 📊 Monitoring & Managing Feeds
After successfully finalizing your setup, the feed instance will appear on the **Pinterest feed list page**. You can monitor and control active sync operations using the following structured management table:
