I have established an acct. with Google Base and have filled in my user name, ... Googles instructions say I need an FTP Destination Path from SearchFit.

Besides needing the destination path, when I click "test product feed now", all of the products listed have "Warning: missing Manufacturer, UPC". Do I need a UPC for each product with Google?

Also, two products have "Error: missing Optimized Description". Several more products had this error but I fixed the problem by copying the meta tags from a product that had no warning and pasting the correct info into the tags. However, these two products are not responding to that treatment. What do you suggest to fix these two products?

In Google Checkout; in my online google acct., in the integration settings, they ask me to "Specify a URL for Google to notify you of new orders and changes in order state. You must provide the URL of a server running 128-bit SSLv3 or TLS. API callback URL: _____ ". What is the APT callback URL I need to put in or is this something SearchFit has automatically done?

Thanks,
Keran

No, "UPC" is recommended, but not required.

Here is a list of required vs recommended fields:

On the SearchFit Control Panel | "Marketing" tab | "Product Feeds" screen | "Google Base" panel | "Feed Optimization Settings", there is a setting for "Product Description: Choose any combination of the following". Choose a combination of items from that setting that guarantee it will not be blank. For example, include the "Product Name".

Enter this value into your Google Checkout admin area for the callback URL:
