EAN matching

Galeries Lafayette allows EAN matching.

To map your offer to an existing product on the marketplace, complete the following attributes:

  • "product-id" : enter the 13-digit EAN of the product.
  • "product-id-type" : enter the value "EAN" in uppercase.
  • "sku" : your product's unique identifier, which is used to retrieve orders.

Make sure you also fill in the required "offers" attributes ("price", "logistic-class", etc.) so that these offers are valid for the channel.

Contact Galeries Lafayette for more information on the different levels of content ownership.

Add a channel catalogue

Add a Galeries Lafayette channel catalogue in your Lengow account.

We recommend defining a Segment within your product catalogue to only configure and send the products you want to publish on this channel.

Map Categories

Map your categories with Galeries Lafayette's through "Categories mapping".

In July 2024, Galeries Lafayette introduced a new taxonomy. As the new and the previous categories will coexist for several months, make sure to select only the categories marked as "NEW"
More information in this news article.

Complete Attributes mapping

Map your catalogue fields with the attributes requested by Galeries Lafayette.

Note: Certain attributes may be mandatory at category level (ex: the size for all the textile products), but be deactivated by Galeries Lafayette for a subcategory and therefore not requested (ex: no size is actually required for umbrellas, although they belong to textile products).

      • Check that there are no rules created in your channel back office.

Send your optimised catalogue to the channel

Two distinct feeds are sent to the channel through API:

  • Product Feed: enables the integration and creation of products. It is sent to the channel once a day. If your products are free from errors, they will be created on the channel and will appear online within 48 hours, after the offer feed has been sent.
  • Offer Feed: enables the update of prices, stock, etc. It is sent to the channel every hours. When the channel receives the offer feed, data is updated almost immediately on the channel website.

Read Channels reports

Read product and offer Channels reports to check that your products are properly configured, either at product creation level (product feed) or updates (offer feed). These reports list only items which were rejected by the channel. For each product in error, the channel specifies the reason for the rejection.

Product and offer Channels reports are available and downloadable from:

  • Lengow: "Channel" tab > select "name of the channel" > click on "Activity"
  • Your Channel Mirakl back office:
    • Products feed report: "My Inventory" > "Import From File" > "Track product imports"
    • Offers feed report : "My Inventory" > "Import From File" > "Track offer imports"
