Shared Catalogs lets publishers share curated, up-to-date product selections with external recipients through a secure, read-only portal. This page lists the most-visited articles to help you get started quickly, organized by role.

For publishers: setting up and managing Shared Catalogs

Publishers configure Shared Catalogs from within Akeneo PIM. These guides cover the full setup process.

• Setting Up Shared Catalogs — Create an export profile in Akeneo PIM, configure which products and attributes recipients see, set up branding, and invite recipients.
• Filter the product selection (advanced) — Control which products appear in your Shared Catalog by filtering on channels, locales, families, categories, and attribute values.

For recipients: accessing and using Shared Catalogs

Recipients access Shared Catalogs through the Shared Catalogs portal (not the PIM). These guides cover everything from account creation to exporting products.

• Access Shared Catalogs — Create your account from an invitation email and log in to the Shared Catalogs portal for the first time.
• Navigating Shared Catalogs — Switch between catalogs, choose gallery or list view, and use search and filter tools to find products.
• Navigating a product page — View product attributes, media, variations, and associations. Search within a product page and switch locales.
• Exporting product information — Export a selection of products as a PDF or Excel (XLSX) file, with options to include media and choose which attributes to export.
