Receive product information from Synkka
How to receive product information
Product information can be received in the following ways:
Subscription
A receiver can choose which information they want to import into their own systems by activating a subscription. A subscription can be for a particular supplier or product. According to this subscription criteria Synkka sends both new and updated product information. The subscription is active until it's deleted by the recipient.
Marketplace
Browse product information in the user interface.
In the Marketplace view you can see all public products published to the Finnish target market. You can use the search to find products. Products can be filtered by for example GTIN or Brand name. The Advanced filter search gives you even more options and you can filter the search result by different criteria like Manufacturer GLN, GPC Classification or Hierarchy level.
Manage subscriptions
A new subscription can be created in the user interface. Create the subscription in the Marketplace or Subscriptions view.
Choose New Subscription and enter the subscription criteria. Please note that it's not possible to create a subscription with only target market as criteria.
- Data source
- GPC
- GTIN-koodi
- Target Market
Note that it's not possible to create the a subscription with the same criteria twice. This will generate an error message. Please see instructions for creating a Data request.
Mikäli tuote sisältyy jo olemassa olevaan kyselyyn, uuden kyselyn tekeminen kyselynäkymällä ei muodosta tuotetietosanomaa halutusta tuotteista. Sanoma lähetetään vain, kun tuotetietoihin tulee päivityksiä. Mikäli vastaanottaja haluaa saada tuotteesta sanoman saman tien, se voidaan tehdä Synkka-palvelussa kertaluontoinen kysely -toiminnolla. Kertaluontoinen kysely tehdään siis tuotetiedoille, joille on jo olemassa kysely.
- Choose New Data Request
- Enter criteria for the Data request:
