All things Shopify and commerce
Hello all ,
While I'm creating a new product in my store, I want to be able to add some required Google Merchant's attributes (specially gender and age group) simultaneously , not fixing them later after Google's warning.
If not possible for any reason, at least loading them later via some sort of a CSV file, because i have a lot of products , and manual editing is not that cool !
The simultaneous approach is much more appreciated, and no 3rd party apps .
best regards

Hi @wawmegastore ,
If you are using the Google & YouTube app, go to the Overview section, click on Manage Products.
You'll see the list of variants. Scroll towards your right and look for the gender and age group column.
After making the changes, click on Save and it will auto-sync to Google Merchant Center.
Best,

Google Shopping Gender & Age Group are information needed ONLY if you plan to have your products listed on Google Shopping.
This information is not compulsory during product creation but rather only if you choose to set up a product feed for Google Merchant Center using the Google & YouTube app.
Without any third party apps, there is currently no functionality to add those values when you are adding your products (on the product pages).

Hi there,
Can you guide me to fix the same error?
Thank you so much,
I suggest uploading 1 product manually and then exporting. I exported products and the CSV had all the required fields that you would need to import correctly.
Here are the fields I had, that include all the Google / YouTube app fields (Each one being it's own column in the CSV file:
NOTE: You can go into Google Merchant to see the expected results for each field
Google Shopping / Google Product Category,
Google Shopping / Gender,
Google Shopping / Age Group,
Google Shopping / MPN,
Google Shopping / Condition,
Google Shopping / Custom Product,
Google Shopping / Custom Label 0,
Google Shopping / Custom Label 1,
Google Shopping / Custom Label 2,
Google Shopping / Custom Label 3,
Google Shopping / Custom Label 4,
Does this still work? Shopify no longer seems to show the google columns.
I can download a .csv containing all products with a specific type of error from Google Merchant Centre but see no way to upload the corrected .csv. Most of my products come in 10 colours and 10 sizes so google sees these as 100 different products and it's just so time consuming to try and fix one by one. Adding feed rules have helped a bit but still can't get it all to work.
No - seems to have gone in past week from bulk editor. I think on Fri I was editing and was accessible and now not.
But accessible via CSV in Shopify CSV or Matrixify CSV.
Hi guys! Yep, Matrixify is able to update Google Fields and we also offer a great tutorial on how to do so. You can also reach out to our support directly if you have any additional questions or queries!
Oh Golly Gee Willikers, who'd have thought !!?? - Another way for shopify to milk more money out of you for something that should and was part of your subscription. Holy Cow ... or should I say Cash Cow
I Believe you can add it under Custom Label in the bulk editor custom label 1 = age_group: Adult custom label 2 = gender: Unisex and so on ...
I got around this very annoying ommission by adding feed rules in google merchant centre. Worth searching for how to do that.
For example I set up a rule that if the product title included "baby" to se the age group to "infant".
Hi, what was the solution you found to the missing age and gender attributes? Can you please share your solution?
I used the Bulk edit feature in Google & Youtube app, and there is field that I can add age and gender. Does it not work this way?
