Hi, there, SyncSpiders!
Did spring slow us down? No, no, no! We did our best to ensure using SyncSpider gets even better with sunny weather.
Let’s see what we have on the plate this week!
We have three important improvements and two new integrations!
Value Manipulation field
The first one is related to the Value Manipulation field. What does it do? Well, when you synchronize data from various integrations, your values might not be in the same format. Some integrations might use numbers, and others might use letters; some might be in one form, and others might use a different, not compatible one.
You might get an error message when this happens, and that’s exactly what we wanted to overcome.
So, from now on, you can configure the Value Manipulation field and set the value option used with specific integration.
You have the dropdown menu, and you can set whatever option you need.
CSV – Automatic template mapping
The second improvement is related to the CSV files manipulation, and it refers to Automatic template mapping, which now maps CSV modules not only with IDs but also names.
Shopify improvements
And the third one is related to Shopify! We introduced API filters meta fields, and a new Entity Product loading option – you can exclude some attributes or variations that you consider irrelevant when transferring data.
New integrations
Yes, dear Syncspiders, we have two new integrations, MessageBird and Benchmark Email! Excellent news for your marketing team! You can integrate these two platforms with your eCommerce website, app, or online marketplace or platform and make your marketing strategy work like a clock!
Okay, besides these important updates and new integrations, we’ve improved Google Sheet, CS-Cart, Dokan, Custom CSV, Facebook, Shopware 6, Shopware 5, Freshsales, and we have a list of SyncSpider core updates.
Check them all out!
