Shopware Platform

Shopware stores often carry large, variant-heavy catalogs, and keeping product data, stock levels, and order information accurate across marketplaces, ad channels, and comparison shopping engines is time-consuming to do by hand. Connecting Shopware to Feedance lets you pull that catalog and inventory data into one place, transform it to match the requirements of each channel, and push updates back without manually exporting files or maintaining custom scripts.

Because Feedance works directly against your Shopware data, changes made in your store, such as a price update, a new product, or a stock adjustment, can flow through to your feeds without a separate manual export step, helping keep listings consistent with what is actually available in your store.

Feedance connects directly to your Shopware store using the credentials you provide, and communicates with your store's API to read and update the data it needs. You authorize the connection once, and Feedance then handles the ongoing communication with your store in the background.

This works the same way for both self-hosted Shopware installations and Shopware's cloud edition, as long as the store's API is reachable and the credentials you supply have the necessary permissions.

Feedance works with exactly three data entities from any connected platform, including Shopware:

• Shopware 5 vs. Shopware 6: Shopware 6 is a ground-up rewrite of Shopware 5, with a different architecture, a different administration interface, and no in-place upgrade path between the two. If your store is still on Shopware 5, confirm which version you are running before connecting, since the underlying API differs between the two generations.
• Variant and parent-child product structure: Shopware models configurable products with parent products and child variants. Catalogs with many variants (for example, products with multiple size and color combinations) can mean a larger number of individual product records to sync than the number of products you see in the storefront.
• API access is credential-based: Shopware 6's Admin API uses token-based authentication with time-limited access tokens, so the integration you set up needs valid, appropriately scoped API credentials from your store to stay connected.
• Self-hosted vs. cloud editions: Whether your store is self-hosted or on Shopware's cloud edition, its API endpoint needs to be reachable from the internet for a live connection to work.

1. Log in to your Feedance account and choose to add a new platform connection.
2. Select Shopware from the list of available platforms.
3. Enter your Shopware store URL and the API credentials Feedance requests.
4. Authorize the connection and let Feedance perform an initial sync of your products, inventory, and orders.
5. Review the imported data and set up your feed rules and export destinations.

Feedance syncs your Shopware data on a regular schedule to keep feeds up to date with your store, and you can also trigger a manual sync when you need changes reflected right away. Sync frequency can vary based on your plan and settings, so it is worth checking your account configuration if you need updates to appear faster.

1. Keep product titles and descriptions complete and accurate in Shopware, since Feedance builds your feeds directly from this source data.
2. Make sure variant products have distinct, meaningful attributes such as size and color so each variant is represented clearly in your feeds.
3. Keep stock levels current in Shopware so exported feeds do not advertise items that are actually out of stock.
4. Use clear, high-quality product images in Shopware, since image quality carries through directly to your feeds.
5. Regularly review your synced data in Feedance after making bulk changes in Shopware to confirm the feed reflects the update correctly.
