Missing [Shipping Weight] Value in Google Merchant Center

NTimoney1 · ‎09-13-2022

I did a Website Crawl in my Google Merchant Center, and I am having several (but not all) products show up with the error: "Missing value for shipping rate [shipping weight]"

However, there are prices for every one of my items in my Shopify store.

Does anyone know what the fix for this may be?

Website Crawl, is not recommended, because it's not very advanced and does not allow you to submit all data correctly. Especially as you are using Shopify, there are apps that can completely and correctly submit all data, such as https://apps.shopify.com/multiple-google-shopping-feeds

However, if you absolutely want to keep using web crawler, then you need to edit your theme to include the shipping weights in the structured data.

Alternatively you can also add the weights using a supplement feed that overwrites the primary feed.

What you need to do is add the ID and shipping weight values.
