Filter on a channel

Each shared catalog can only be linked to one channel, so please select the relevant one that contains the products you want to display on shared catalogs.

Filter on one or more locales

By default, all activated locales for the channel are selected. You can choose one or more locales for your Shared Catalog depending on your needs.

Remove a locale

Click on the small cross next to the locale code.

Add a locale

When you start typing your locale code or label in the field, the PIM will automatically display the matching locale. Click on the locale to add it to the field.

Filter on attributes

Click on Edit to open the Attribute Selection modal:

The modal is divided into three parts:

• on the left side, you can see the attribute groups
• in the middle, the attributes belonging to the selected group
• on the right side, you will find your attribute selection.

To customize your own attribute selection:

1. In the left column, select a specific attribute group or All groups. The attributes belonging to the selected group (or to All groups) will be displayed accordingly in the middle column,
2. You can drag and drop the attributes you wish to add from the middle column to the right column. Your Shared Catalog will display the selected attributes in the right column.

The order of the attributes in the catalog will be identical to the order set in the Attribute Groups/Attributes settings. If no sorting has been done at least once in the PIM Settings, the Attributes Groups & Attributes within Shared Catalogs will be sorted by alphabetical order.

If you need to clear your selection, click on Clear to remove all attribute groups. Finally, to save your attribute selection, click on Apply. The Attributes field will display the number of attributes selected for your Shared Catalog.

Custom attributes are not supported on Shared Catalogs.
