    Making it Easier and Faster to Connect Your Product Content to the Digital Shelf

    • Enhanced search and filtering behavior allows you to easily identify groups with information relevant to a particular product category

    Amazon Feedback Report for Better Error Actionability

    Reduce the time it takes to get your products published to Amazon with the new Amazon channel Feedback Report. Amazon regularly introduces new feedback types to give brands more information about the health of their product listings, but it can be challenging to navigate the volume of feedback product by product. We’ve introduced a new Feedback Report specifically for Amazon to help you more easily identify your top issues, resolve them quickly, and get your products listed on Amazon faster.

    • For each Amazon channel, see all feedback across all products in one Feedback Report
    • Filter through your Amazon channel feedback to quickly identify trends or top blocking errors
    • Export feedback, whether the complete list of feedback or a filtered down set, for more flexible analysis and to resolve errors in bulk. Exports also include Amazon-specific publication identifiers that can be used when opening support tickets with Amazon.
    • [Planned release - early 2025] Quickly resolve errors in bulk by assigning an Action, which can be adding products to a list, running products through a workflow, editing products in bulk, or analyzing readiness
