This guide explains how to send your product data to Youzu.ai, which is essential for powering visual search, product recommendations, and other AI features.

Youzu.ai offers multiple methods for product data ingestion to accommodate different business needs and technical capabilities.

Available Ingestion MethodsCopied!

1. Event-based Webhooks - Real-time updates via webhooks for immediate product data synchronization
2. API Batch Import - Programmatically upload your entire product catalog using our API
3. Manual Dashboard Upload - User-friendly interface for uploading product data through the Youzu.ai dashboard

Choosing the Right MethodCopied!

Method	Best For	Update Frequency	Technical Complexity
Webhooks	Real-time inventory systems	Immediate	Medium
API Batch	Large catalogs, automated systems	Scheduled (daily/weekly)	High
Manual Upload	Small catalogs, testing	As needed	Low

Flexible Integration with Property MappingCopied!

Youzu.ai's property mapping feature allows you to map your existing product attribute names to our expected field names, eliminating the need to restructure your data. For example, if your system uses item_id instead of our expected product_id, simply create a property map to translate these fields automatically during import.

Property mapping is available in:

• The API Batch Import interface
• The Manual Dashboard Upload interface
