Feeds: Batch File APIs

Radial feeds are file-based integrations typically used to share batch data between client systems and the Retail Order Management Platform. In most implementations, Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) delivers feed files to a designated directory. All file acknowledgments, confirmations, and errors follow a schema shared by all hub products, and are provided within the Product Hub compressed file.

Product Hub

The Product Hub manages the interchange of product- and item-related data between your webstore and Radial. Product Hub integrations include the following inbound (from client to Radial) feeds:

Item Master
Note: EP section specific for item and image URLs is required if you plan to use ROM's email integration or ROM's third-party integrations with eBay marketplace.
Price Event
This feed is required if you plan to use any marketplace integrations, such as a third-party marketing affiliate.
