Creating a Leroy Merlin Channel
All Channels, including Leroy Merlin, are managed in the Channels section of Plytix. This area can be found on the top menu of the main navigation bar.

- Go to the Channels section
- On the right of the screen, click "Add Channel"
- Then give your Channel a unique name, and choose Leroy Merlin
- Click "Add Channel"
Setting up a Leroy Merlin Channel
1. Choosing Products
Add a Product list containing the products you want to include in your feed by navigating to the "Products" tab and choosing a list from the dropdown menu. Alternatively, you may choose to create a new list by clicking "+ Create a list".
2. Attribute Mapping
The third tab in your Leroy Merlin Channel setup is called "Mapping". This is where you'll match attributes from Plytix to Leroy Merlin fields.
💡 All attributes can be configured to show a different output based on formulas by applying an Attribute Transformation.
3. Defining Output Format
In the "Format" tab of your channel, you can configure the order in which your attributes should be displayed, and whether to include attribute values for product parents, variants, sub-variants or all.
4. Processing the Feed
To finalize the feed, you need to process it. It will then generate a feed link and file that you can use in your Leroy Merlin account.
To process your feed:
1. Go to the top of the Channel area.
2. Click the "Process now" button. In the next window that appears, adjust settings and click "Start processing"
5. Settings
Schedule recurring processing in the "Settings" tab of your Channel to automate product content updates. Additionally, from the Settings tab of your channel, you can also change the file name, send a copy of your file to Dropbox or an FTP server, and create Webhooks
💡 Note that this will automatically turn your channel into "Live", and it will then be counted towards your total count of Live Outputs.
