How to import catalog

You can import items and subscriptions from external platforms and synchronize user inventory.

Import catalog from Google Play

Notice

Before you start importing, check that Google Play Android Developer API is enabled in your Google Play project. Visit https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/androidpublisher.googleapis.com/overview?project={project_id}, where project_id — your project ID in Google Play. If this API disabled, enable it. The settings will take time to apply, so the import may fail if you try immediately after enabling the settings. Wait a few minutes and retry.

1. Open your project in Publisher Account.
2. Click Store in the side menu.
3. In the Catalog Management pane, click Configure.
4. In the Integration with external platforms pane, click Configure.
5. In the Google Play pane, click Configure.
6. Specify Application ID — your app’s ID from Google Play.

7. Upload JSON with a private key.

8. Go to the Google Play Console, in the side menu click Users and permissions and add service account as a new user with the role of Android Management User. This requires you to have the Project IAM admin role.

9. Click Save.
10. Click Start import. Catalog import will begin immediately.

11. To sell virtual items in the web store created by Site Builder, configure item groups in Publisher Account and assign one or more of them to each item.
