The ACP-oriented output prepares product-discovery records using the validation profile shown in Feedaptor. The UCP output is a catalog data snapshot with product and variant structure. The Google output is a supplemental feed tied to existing item IDs; it does not replace your complete primary Merchant Center feed.
Each target has a different operational boundary. A UCP snapshot still needs an appropriate merchant-domain runtime for a live service. An ACP-oriented file still needs the destination account, onboarding, and authorized delivery path. These exports do not enable checkout. A product can pass one target profile and still have issues relevant to another, so inspect readiness for the target you plan to use.
What to do
- Identify the platform and account that will consume the data.
- Read the target description and profile version in Destinations.
- Inspect target-specific errors rather than relying on the overall product count.
- Download the required artifact and audit evidence from the same release.
