Summary
The VTEX XML service renders the price tags in the format $ 99999,99, with a comma as decimal separator.
Recently, Google Shopping stopped accepting the comma as a separator, being necessary to send it as a dot.
Simulation
- From the admin menu, access the Catalog.
- From the Catalog menu, enter Settings > XML.
- Access an XML file that is compatible with Google Shopping.
- Search for one of the
<g:price>tags.
Workaround
Not being a format available in XML, the current solution is to use the API integration with Google Shopping, which is available as a native marketplace integration in VTEX.
