I have to notify them to add the Shareasale feed and make the switch from the CJ feed. Since we are going to be discontinuing the CJ feed the switch might take a little longer. You really might want to try using Make A Page for this feed :) Plus we are going to be adding WishAds, plus working on some other neat things :)

Sounds great! Keep up the good work, Deb!

Viator updated the feed today, and added Canadian currency. This is the last time a field change will be made, the Custom Fields will be as they are noted above going forward.

I'm not loxly, but I assume the column heads are those that SAS has been using the last year or two. (I don't really know whether those column names are available on the SAS site anywhere? If not they need to be.) Here are the column names/headings I use on all my SAS datafeed tables:

ProductID|Name|MerchantID|Merchant|Link|Thumbnail|BigImage|Price|RetailPrice|Category|SubCategory|Description|
Custom1|Custom2|Custom3|Custom4|Custom5|LastUpdated|status|manufacturer|partNumber|merchantCategory|merchantSubcategory|shortDescription|ISBN|UPC|

NOTE: The "|" character is the "pipe delminted" column separator you'll see explained at SAS under datafeeds.

NOTE ALSO: I split those headings into two rows here for convenience of display. When you add them to the top of the datafeed in Excel or whatever, or for a MySQL table, they are all the top or heading row.

Thanks Gary! Unfortunately we can't put that header row in the datafeed, it gets removed if we try :)

And here are the field headings with our Custom Fields easily defined for you:

ProductID|Name|MerchantID|Merchant|Link|Thumbnail|BigImage|USDPrice|RetailPrice|Category|SubCategory|Description|
AUD|EURO|GBP|CAN|Country>City|LastUpdated|status|manufacturer|partNumber|merchantCategory|merchantSubcategory|shortDescription|ISBN|UPC|

The datafeed is updated for February and has 57 drops and 49 added tours. Be sure to get your latest feed to keep up with the newest tours :) There are also LOTS of great deals in the Shareasale Deals Database that aren't in the main feed since they are shorter term offers.

[loxly]

The datafeed is updated for March! It has 60 drops and 12 adds. Attached is a simple excel workbook with the tour names that were dropped and added if you want to search for them in your pages.

[loxly]

April datafeed has been loaded. It's getting to be time to fly into the busy season... I dislike the phrase but..... it's time to lock and load! :)

May Datafeed is up, and attached is the May changes file.

I have applied to Viator. My status is being reviewed. Hope to be accepted.

I feel it would be great to integrate your datafeed on my travel website.

Send me an email at deborah at viator dot com with your Shareasale ID so I make sure to check your application. The person that actually usually does the approvals is on vacation this week, and since she likes that control I usually only approve a few while she is out.

[federico09]

I have just sent you an email including my SAS ID.
Thanks
