How to import your product catalog from Google Merchant Center

The Google Catalog Import allows you to bind your existing feed configurations from Google Merchant Center (GMC) to TikTok and sync your products regularly according to your needs. The Google Import feature only supports GMC catalogs created or maintained using the Scheduled Fetch method.

Note: The Google Import feature is an alternative to TikTok's scheduled data feed since it does not support GMC catalogs created using manual, file, or API integration methods.

Before you begin
