Linking Existing Amazon Offers and Listings

If you are creating new Amazon Offers see this article

How to link your existing Amazon Offers

Navigate to "Link Existing Listings" (More>Link Listings) inside the Codisto app and choose the relevant Amazon site:

Codisto will try to match your existing Amazon Offers to your webstore products in two ways:

  1. Using SKU codes or Product Identifiers.  This is the highest confidence match.  If you are happy with the matches found you can link quickly in bulk after checking.
  2. Using close title or SKU match.  Codisto looks for close matches.  It isn't a perfect science because we attempt to broaden the search to make linking faster by extending search beyond 'exact match'.  Please check for appropriateness of the matches and link individually or in bulk.

No automatic match

If no match is found you can search for a match manually based on title or leave the listings unlinked.  Click search, choose product and repeat.  Then click confirm and continue button at bottom right when you are happy.

Note

If you want to update the Amazon Listing Details (Title, Description, Bullets etc.) from your ecommerce platform/Codisto then you need to turn Listing Details on in the XpressGrid because Codisto syncs Offers only (by default).
When updating listing details, Codisto (and all 3rd party solutions) can only update listings in your Amazon Seller Central account.  It is up to Amazon (at their sole discretion) whether to update the front end i.e. what shows on the Amazon product page.  Contact Amazon is you are having issues where you are the only seller of a product and Amazon Seller Central isn't being reflected on the public, buyable Amazon product page.

Also remember, if you have products on Amazon that are not in your online store catalog and you want to create listings in your ecommerce platform for these products based on the product information and images on Amazon, you will not be able to do so using Codisto. Codisto doesn’t create products on your ecommerce platform for you but you may be able to use an alternative service (e.g. an importer app), which may be found on the app marketplaces for the supported ecommerce platforms.
