How to Set Up a Salsify Channel

Learn how to set up your Salsify account in Jazva.

Overview

Salsify is a product content management solution that helps retailers develop, manage and exchange product information, such as descriptions, features, images, specs, datasheets and more.

Jazva’s integration with Salsify will benefit retailers that require listing out detailed product information. For example, if you sell health foods, Jazva will now be able to pull nutrition facts from your Salsify database, then publish them on your webstore, eBay and Jet.com listings, all within a single platform. The process of managing your product content and publishing them on websites and marketplaces will be seamless.
