Understanding the products table
On the Products overview page, below the product history graph and recommendations panel, you'll find a detailed table listing all your individual products. This table helps you quickly sort, filter, and inspect specific items in your catalog. It shows important details about each product, helping you understand its current state.
- Visibility lets you know if your product is currently appearing in ads or free listings on Google. It might show if a product is "Visible" or "Not Visible."
- Status tells you about the health of your product data itself, such as if it's "Approved," "Disapproved," or "Pending review." Products can be disapproved if their landing pages are unavailable or if checkout URLs are incorrect.
- Note: The difference is that a product can have an "Approved" status (meaning its data is good), but still be "Not Visible" if there are other issues, like policy violations or the store view is unavailable.
- Price shows the current price of your product.
- Clicks tell you how many times users have clicked on your product listing.
- Source indicates where the product data came from, for example, a data source or a direct upload.
Product attributes that can be viewed in the product list include:
Column | Description |
Visibility | Shows if your product appears on Google or not |
Status | Shows if Google has approved your product, disapproved your product, or other statuses |
Image | An image of the product |
Title | The title of the product |
