Fields
name

string

Immutable. Full resource name of the product, such as projects/*/locations/global/catalogs/default_catalog/branches/default_branch/products/productId.
id

string

Immutable. Product identifier, which is the final component of name. For example, this field is "id_1", if name is projects/*/locations/global/catalogs/default_catalog/branches/default_branch/products/id_1.

This field must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 128 characters. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.

Corresponding properties: Google Merchant Center property id. Schema.org property Product.sku.
type

enum (Type)

Immutable. The type of the product. Default to Catalog.product_level_config.ingestion_product_type if unset.

string

Variant group identifier. Must be an id, with the same parent branch with this product. Otherwise, an error is thrown.

For Type.PRIMARY Products, this field can only be empty or set to the same value as id.

For VARIANT Products, this field cannot be empty. A maximum of 2,000 products are allowed to share the same Type.PRIMARY Product. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.

Corresponding properties: Google Merchant Center property item_group_id. Schema.org property Product.inProductGroupWithID.
collectionMemberIds[]

string

The id of the collection members when type is Type.COLLECTION.

Non-existent product ids are allowed. The type of the members must be either Type.PRIMARY or Type.VARIANT otherwise an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is thrown. Should not set it for other types. A maximum of 1000 values are allowed. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is return.
gtin

string

Product categories. This field is repeated for supporting one product belonging to several parallel categories. Strongly recommended using the full path for better search / recommendation quality.

To represent full path of category, use '>' sign to separate different hierarchies. If '>' is part of the category name, replace it with other character(s).

For example, if a shoes product belongs to both ["Shoes & Accessories" -> "Shoes"] and ["Sports & Fitness" -> "Athletic Clothing" -> "Shoes"], it could be represented as:

 "categories": [
   "Shoes & Accessories > Shoes",
   "Sports & Fitness > Athletic Clothing > Shoes"
 ]

For product prediction, this field is ignored and the model automatically detects the text language. The Product can include text in different languages, but duplicating Products to provide text in multiple languages can result in degraded model performance.

For product search this field is in use. It defaults to "en-US" if unset.
attributes

map (key: string, value: object)

Highly encouraged. Extra product attributes to be included. For example, for products, this could include the store name, vendor, style, color, etc. These are very strong signals for recommendation model, thus we highly recommend providing the attributes here.

Features that can take on one of a limited number of possible values. Two types of features can be set are:

Textual features. some examples would be the brand/maker of a product, or country of a customer. Numerical features. Some examples would be the height/weight of a product, or age of a customer.

For example: { "vendor": {"text": ["vendor123", "vendor456"]}, "lengths_cm": {"numbers":[2.3, 15.4]}, "heights_cm": {"numbers":[8.1, 6.4]} }.

This field needs to pass all below criteria, otherwise an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned:

  • Max entries count: 200.
  • The key must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 128 characters.
  • For indexable attribute, the key must match the pattern: [a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_]*. For example, key0LikeThis or KEY_1_LIKE_THIS.
  • For text attributes, at most 400 values are allowed. Empty values are not allowed. Each value must be a non-empty UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 256 characters.
  • For number attributes, at most 400 values are allowed.

Exactly one of text or numbers should be set. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.
attributes.searchable
(deprecated)

boolean

This field is normally ignored unless AttributesConfig.attribute_config_level of the Catalog is set to the deprecated 'PRODUCT_LEVEL_ATTRIBUTE_CONFIG' mode. For information about product-level attribute configuration, see Configuration modes. If true, custom attribute values are searchable by text queries in SearchService.Search.

This field is ignored in a UserEvent.

Only set if type text is set. Otherwise, a INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.
attributes.indexable
(deprecated)

boolean

This field is normally ignored unless AttributesConfig.attribute_config_level of the Catalog is set to the deprecated 'PRODUCT_LEVEL_ATTRIBUTE_CONFIG' mode. For information about product-level attribute configuration, see Configuration modes. If true, custom attribute values are indexed, so that they can be filtered, faceted or boosted in SearchService.Search.

This field is ignored in a UserEvent.

See SearchRequest.filter, SearchRequest.facet_specs and SearchRequest.boost_spec for more details.

In "GIRLS:27", size system is empty; "GIRLS" represents size type; "27" represents size value. In "32 inches", both size system and size type are empty, while size value is "32 inches".

A maximum of 20 values are allowed per Product. Each value must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 128 characters. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.

variants[]

object (Product)

Union field expiration.

expiration can be only one of the following:
expireTime

string (Timestamp format)

If it is set, the product is not available for SearchService.Search after current timestamp plus ttl. However, the product can still be retrieved by ProductService.GetProduct and ProductService.ListProducts.
