XML Feed Setup
Skroutz Feed
Import your products using the Skroutz XML feed format, commonly used in the Greek e-commerce market.
Overview
Skroutz is the leading price comparison engine in Greece. SearchX supports importing products directly from Skroutz-compatible XML feeds.
Feed Format
Your feed should follow the Skroutz Feed Specification:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<store>
<products>
<product>

Required Fields

UniqueID | Unique product identifier |
Name | Product name |
ProductURL | URL to the product page |

UniqueID and product identification
The UniqueID value is exposed as unique_id in SDK events (e.g., SearchX:addToCart). If you use these events to interact with your own backend, make sure UniqueID matches the identifier your API expects — typically your database primary key. See Event Handling for details.

Setting Up
- Navigate to Applications in the SearchX Dashboard.
- Set your feed URL and select Skroutz as the feed type.
- Click Import Products.
Smart Tag Parsing
SearchX automatically detects multiple tag name variants (e.g., ImageURL vs image, ProductURL vs url). This reduces setup friction — your feed will likely work without renaming any tags.
Skroutz Feed Generators
Most Greek e-commerce platforms (like OpenCart with the Skroutz plugin) can automatically generate Skroutz-compatible feeds, including variation support. Check your platform's documentation for feed generation options.
