Pick a variant of a sample linen shirt and the idealo site, and see the CSV row Feedora writes for it, or the reason the validation report gives for leaving it out.
Every variant is its own offer. Brand comes from the vendor, EAN from the variant barcode, colour and size from the options named Colour and Size, and material here from a product metafield you map. Amount and delivery cells are left as descriptions in this sample.

idealo wants a file, Shopify has a catalogue
idealo reads your products from a CSV file with its own columns: the euro amount, delivery costs, delivery time, EAN, brand and a category. Shopify keeps those details in different places, or not at all.
Building the file by hand works once. Keeping it right every day is the hard part.
What you get
One feed per market
Each variant gets its own row with the euro amount buyers in Germany or Austria see in Shopify Markets, the compare-at amount, base unit, delivery costs and delivery time.
- idealo.de · 214 variants
- idealo.at · 198 variants
- Feed URL: private, can be renewed
Delivery costs and field mapping
Delivery costs per carrier: flat, by weight or waived above an order value. Map brand, EAN, colour and size from fields, options or metafields, and give each product type an idealo category.
- DHL: €4.90, waived from €50
- DPD: by weight
- Garden tools: Garden > Garden tools > Spades
A report of what is left out
The validation report says why each variant is left out, such as a missing EAN, brand or image. Leave products out by tag or collection. The feed rebuilds every 6 hours, after you save a change in the app and when you press Build feed now, with no product limit.
- Left out: 6 · No EAN
- Excluded by tag: 3
- Missing brand: 0
Every column in the idealo file, and where its value comes from
Feedora writes one CSV file per idealo site with the columns of idealo’s CSV format, one row per variant. For the mapped columns you choose the source: the default, a Shopify field, a variant option, a product or variant metafield (for up to 10 columns), the same value for every product, or empty. When the source is empty for a product, the default is used.
| What idealo shows | Column | Where Feedora takes it from |
|---|---|---|
| Offer ID | sku | The variant SKU, or the variant ID when the SKU is empty. When two variants share a SKU, the second gets its variant ID and the report flags it. |
| Offer title | title | The product title, then the variant’s option values: Linen shirt - Blue / M. |
| Product page | url | The product’s Online Store page with the variant picked, under the store address you set for the market, plus UTM parameters (idealo, cpc, idealo to start; you can change or turn them off). |

| Base amount | basePrice | The amount per 1 kg, 1 l, 1 m, 1 m² or 1 m³, from the variant’s unit measurement in Shopify. Empty without one. |
| Delivery time | delivery | The market’s delivery time from Settings (1-3 Werktage for Germany, 2-4 Werktage for Austria to start), or a mapped field or metafield per product. |
| Brand | brand | The product vendor, or the source you map. |
| EAN / GTIN | eans | The variant barcode, or the source you map. Length and check digit are checked; a wrong one is left empty and flagged in the report. |
| Manufacturer part number | hans | Empty unless you map it, for example to a metafield. |
| Category | categoryPath | The idealo category path you give the product type, levels separated by >, else the Shopify product category. |
| Description | description | The product description as plain text, up to 1,000 characters. |
| Images | imageUrls | Up to 10 product images, separated by semicolons. The first is the main picture. |
| Packaging unit | packagingUnit | 1, or a whole number from the source you map. |

You can import them from your Shopify shipping rates. |

You can also leave out products by tag or by collection (up to 10), and sold-out variants and variants at 0.00, which are left out to start.

How it works
-
Set delivery costs
Import them from your Shopify shipping settings or add each carrier.
-
Map fields and categories
Pick where brand and EAN come from and give product types an idealo category.
-
Give idealo the feed URL
Copy the private feed URL into your idealo business account.
What it does not do
Knowing the limits up front saves you an install.
It is not an idealo app
It is not affiliated with or endorsed by idealo, and idealo decides which products it lists.
It does not take idealo orders
No idealo Direktkauf and no order import.
It does not build other feeds
Only idealo Germany and Austria, not Google or Amazon.
Pricing
Questions before you install
Something else? Write to hello@reply.getstorefleet.com.
How much does it cost?
Free. There is no paid plan and no charge for any feature.
Which Shopify permissions does it ask for?
Read products, to build the feed from your active products, variants, images and the metafields you map; read shipping, only when you import delivery costs from Shopify; and read locales. It does not read customers or orders.
Do I need to change my theme?
No. Nothing is added to your theme. The feed links to your product pages, so it needs the Online Store channel, and your store must not be password-protected when idealo fetches the file.
Do I need Shopify Plus?
No. It is a public app for the Shopify App Store. Your store needs a Shopify Markets market for Germany or Austria priced in euros.
What happens to my data if I uninstall?
The feed URL stops returning the file at once and no more builds run. Settings, feed files, build history and reports are deleted when Shopify sends its erasure request.
Is Feedora affiliated with idealo?
No. Feedora is not affiliated with or endorsed by idealo. It builds a CSV file in the format idealo's CSV importer reads; idealo decides which offers it lists.
