Summary

🚀Fetch data from your PIM when you need it

You can now manually synchronize with the Akeneo connector directly from your SDM interface! 

This means that when changes are made in your PIM, you no longer need to wait until the next day's automatic sync to fetch your new attribute or any other new element in your PIM structure.

How it works

  1. Go to the project connected to Akeneo PIM
  2. Go to Configuration Tab > Connector
  3. Click Synchronize 👇🏼

To apply the new PIM configuration to your current step, you must go back and 'edit' the previous step. This will reset the current step and update it with the new configuration.

 

New Filter - Mapping step

The mapping step now has a new "by type" filter option, allowing you to select types such as "media", "text", "number", "yes/no", and "select".

Attribute type “image” supported

The attribute type "image" is now supported by our connector along with the asset type collection. This means that you are now able to assign your imported media files to the "image" attribute of your products.

Categorisation module renamed “Classification”

The "Categorisation" module has been renamed "Classification" for improved language consistency. Note that this change is not retroactive. Therefore, any custom names you've set for your Classification modules will not be affected.

Image preview displayed in all table elements

A preview of the imported media files has been integrated into the workflow to give you a constant view of the product they're working on. Previously, only the media URL could issue a preview.
