The Product data feed can be a CSV, XML or any kind of structured text file.
Preferably you should set up a script that exports data from your database to a file, and set up a routine to keep this file updated.
If you opt for an XML file, here are some recommendations to ease the integration.
Please note that an invalid xml file can not be operated by our system and your offers will not be updated.
