The catalog feed lists all the offers in a particular catalog.
Catalogs share a one-to-many relationship with offers. For example, multiple merchants may list offers for the same catalog, each of these are stored as a separate entry in the offers feed but the catalog to which they belong occupies only one entry in the catalog feed.
An example of a catalog would be: iPhone 5 64gb (black)
A corresponding offer would be: iPhone 5 64gb (Black) from MerchantX at PriceY.
A list of the elements in the catalog feed can be found below in the Appendix.

You can ask your business developper to blacklist some categories or merchants; you can also ask which fields you want (all are optionnal)
– Check the gz files against the md5 file once you’ve downloaded the files to ensure the checksum is correct, if it’s not re-download as a non-match implies corruption.
– You can pause/activate your feed through our partner extranet; note that your feeds are automaticcally paused if you do not download them for one month
– For each catalog, you can find corresponding offers in the OfferFeed with key “catalog-id” by using product-id and catId fields concatenated with “-“.
