    Go to each data transformer and make necessary adjustments.
  • Publish setting. The default value for “published” is false. This means the synchronized products will not be published in any stores. You’ll need to set it to true and make sure you put the Store names in the “Channels/Publications” values. If you set it to true, then this route will be able to fetch the Products and publish them to the defined channels/publications inside that transformer.
