About This File
The Facebook catalog feed (Facebook store) + Instagram feed plugin allows you to create dynamic Facebook ads to promote your online store products in available placements (Facebook, Instagram, Audience Network and Messenger) using a Data Feed.
A data feed is a file with detailed information about your products. It contains unique IDs, prices, image URLs, and other product attributes. Also, all products correspond to a number from the list of Google categories.
Upload your product data and millions of shoppers will see your online products. Change them at any time so that buyers always see up-to-date information in your ads.
