Use the credentials sent to you by the Nexway Customer Success team (via the email address cs.nexwayconnect@nexway.com) to connect to Cocoon (preproduction: Cocoon UAT; production: Cocoon Production) to define your product feeds. For each product feed, you can define:
- Feed format (CSV, XML, etc.)

Step 1: Define a product feed format
Each feed format is named and allows you to define feed such format parameters as:
- Nexway Product Feed Version (we recommend selecting the latest version)
- Output format: CSV or XML (the Excel icon will set the output to Excel compliant)
- For CSV format: If necessary, select charset, separator, delimiter, line ending
- For CSV format: Selecting fields and order them by clicking on the check-box and dragging and dropping them into the field list
Step 2: Define a product list
You can define your product list by using product defines a segment of the Nexway Catalog using the filtering criteria below:
- Provider
- Full: Full catalog export (limit is not required)
- Top-selling: Products flagged as “Top Selling” in the catalog
- New product: Products flagged as “New” in the catalog
- Limit: Maximum number of products in the product feed
- Territory: Point of sale, product language, product description language
- Categories: List of product categories
- Publisher: List of publishers
- SKU: Product reference code or name
Step 3: Test your product feed
Once created, the product list activates the product feed, which you can test through the Cocoon interface.
The parameters provided via the URL are:
- V2.4: Latest release of the product feed
- Secret (mandatory): Alphanumeric (8-10) key sent (Cocoon)
