Question: What attribute is required in a local product inventory feed?
- product_type
- store code
- item_code
- location ID
or
- item_code
- shop code
- location ID
- product_type
Explanation
Store code identifies the specific physical store where a product is available. In a local product inventory feed, this value must match the store codes connected through Business Profile or store data. Google uses it to connect each product’s price, quantity, and availability to the correct store location. Without this attribute, Merchant Center cannot match local inventory to the right physical store.
Why the other options are incorrect
Location ID is not the required Merchant Center attribute name for local inventory matching.
product_type is used for product categorization, not store-level inventory identification.
item_code is not an official required attribute for the local product inventory feed.
