List Products on Facebook Shops

After successfully connecting to your Main Store and sale channels, LitCommerce will automatically import products from your main store website to the “All products” tab. In this article, we will show you step-by-step instructions on how to list your products on Facebook Shop.

Kindly note that once your Facebook shop is connected to LitCommerce, you need to go to the Channel Settings and choose the catalog from the dropdown, then Save the setting.



In case, there is not any product catalog assigned to your Facebook Page, you can refer to this help doc to know How to assign the catalog to your Facebook Page here.

1 - Select products



First of all, you need to create a new draft listing. Please look at the left sidebar menu and navigate to All products.



Now, simply tick the corresponding checkbox in front of the products you want to list on Facebook Shop and select action List products on Channel.



A popup will appear, please choose Facebook Shop and click Add as draft now.



All product data will be copied into draft listings, and from that point, listings data will be maintained separately from the original main store products.
Price, Inventory modification can be automatically applied to listings if configured in Channels settings.
Other field modifications can be automatically applied to listings using Default Templates

After that, there is a notification that Products have been added to the Draft section in the channel. Please go to the tab Draft on the Facebook Shop channel on LitCommerce to find the new listing.

At this step, the listing has not been published in your Facebook Shop store yet. Now it’s time to customize your listing information before going live.


2 - Edit draft listings



Please navigate to the left sidebar menu, and find your Facebook Shop channel.

If you want to edit your listings in Single Edit Mode, you can click on the listing title. An editing page will appear on the screen, including these tabs: Vital Info, Product Identifiers, Images, Category and Shipping.

Before publishing your listing to the Facebook Shop site, you’ll need to fill in some missing information (which Facebook Shop requires but does not exist on product information on the main store yet). There will be an error message along with a red warning symbol (!) to let you know which tab is missing information. The required field will have a red asterisk symbol (*) next to it.

You can also edit information in other fields within the listing as you want.



To save all your changes to the listing, look at the bottom right corner and click on one of the buttons below:

Save & Publish - Save and publish all your changes immediately on Facebook Shop.
Save & Close - Your listing will be saved as a draft on LitCommerce with all your changes.
Save Change - Save your changes but stay on the page to continue editing.

If you happen to save without publishing your change, you can still go live with all those changes later. Simply navigate to the Active box on your Facebook Shop listing page, select your listings then select action Update to Facebook Shop.

LitCommerce also allows you to use Facebook Shop templates and recipes to edit multiple listings at once. Please find more information on how to create Facebook Shop templates & recipes here.
If you already have an Facebook Shop template/recipe, select the listings you want to apply, then click the box Apply a Template and choose the appropriate option.




3 - Publish listings



To publish one listing, click Save & Publish to Facebook inside the listing edit page.

To publish multiple listings, select the listings you want to publish as draft/active to Facebook Shop store, choose action Publish to Facebook.

Then, your listing will be transferred from the Draft tab to the Active tab correspondingly.





If you happen to save without publishing your change, you can still go live with all those changes later. Simply navigate to the Active box on your Facebook listing page, select your listings then select action Update to Facebook Shop.
