  • Admin
  • Developer

The Adobe Commerce Extra Product Attributes module extends product data feeds. It includes additional product attributes from Adobe Commerce product configurations:

Once installed, the module works automatically. It captures and exports the additional attributes during product synchronization. No additional configuration is required.

Key benefits

  • Automatic enhancement: Enriches product feeds with tax class, attribute set, and inventory attributes
  • Seamless integration: Provides essential context for external systems and services
  • Zero configuration: Works immediately after installation
  • Real-time updates: Synchronizes automatically with product changes

Features and exported attributes

The module adds three additional attributes to your existing product data feeds:

  • ac_tax_class
  • ac_attribute_set
  • ac_inventory

1. Tax class information (ac_tax_class)

Purpose: Provides tax classification information for each product

Data Format: String value containing the tax class name

Example output:

{
  "attributes": [
    {
      "code": "ac_tax_class",
      "values": ["Taxable Goods"]
    }
  ]
}

Use cases:

When you export tax class data to Commerce catalog services, this data becomes available for applications that support:

  • Tax compliance reporting
  • Integration with external tax calculation services
  • Product categorization for accounting systems

2. Attribute set information (ac_attribute_set)

Purpose: Identifies which attribute set is assigned to each product

Data Format: String value containing the attribute set name

Example output:

{
  "attributes": [
    {
      "code": "ac_attribute_set",
      "values": [
        "Default"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Use cases:

When you export attribute set data to Commerce catalog services, it enables advanced product management features in external systems. These features include:

  • Product template identification
  • Catalog management and organization
  • Third-party system integration requiring attribute set context

3. Advanced inventory data (ac_inventory)

Purpose: Provides inventory management settings for each product

Data Format: JSON-encoded string containing inventory configuration

Included fields:

  • manageStock (boolean): Whether stock management is enabled

  • cartMinQty (float): Minimum quantity allowed in shopping cart

  • cartMaxQty (float): Maximum quantity allowed in shopping cart

  • backorders (string): Backorder policy. The value is one of the following:

    • "no": No backorders allowed
    • "allow": Allow quantity below 0
    • "allow_notify": Allow quantity below 0 and notify customer

  • enableQtyIncrements (boolean): Whether quantity increments are enabled

  • qtyIncrements (float): Required quantity increment value

Example output:

{
  "attributes": [
    {
      "code": "ac_inventory",
      "values": [
        "{\"manageStock\":true,\"cartMinQty\":2,\"cartMaxQty\":42,\"backorders\":\"no\",\"enableQtyIncrements\":false,\"qtyIncrements\":2}"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Use cases:

When you export inventory data to Commerce catalog services, it enables advanced inventory management features in external systems. These features include:

  • Inventory management system integration
  • Shopping cart validation rules
  • Order fulfillment process optimization
  • Customer experience customization

Data export feed enhancement

The Extra Product Attributes module enhances the existing product feeds. It integrates the new attribute data automatically.

  • Products Feed (products): Enhanced with the three additional attributes

    • Adds the ac_tax_class, ac_attribute_set, and ac_inventory attributes to each product record
    • Keeps original product data unchanged
    • Maintains backward compatibility with existing feed consumers

  • Product Attributes Feed (productAttributes): Enhanced with attribute metadata for the new attributes

    • Automatically registers metadata for the three new attributes in the productAttributes feed
    • Provides attribute configuration details (data types, visibility settings, and so on)
    • Helps external systems understand the new attribute schema

Install the extension

Requirements

Installation steps

Add the adobe-commerce/module-extra-product-attributes module using Composer:

composer require adobe-commerce/module-extra-product-attributes

For detailed installation steps, see the following guides:

Synchronize product data

After redeployment, the Adobe Commerce instance exports the additional data automatically during product synchronization. You can also use the resync CLI commands to synchronize immediately.

# Resync the products feed (includes the new attributes)
bin/magento saas:resync --feed=products

# Resync the product attributes feed (includes new attribute metadata)
bin/magento saas:resync --feed=productAttributes

Troubleshooting

Products missing additional attributes:

  • Verify that the module is properly installed and enabled
  • Run the resync commands to refresh product data
  • Check that products have valid tax class and attribute set assignments

Inventory data appears incorrect:

  • Verify that inventory settings are configured correctly in the Admin
  • Check for website-specific inventory overrides
  • Verify that the Inventory Management module is working correctly

For further details, see the Inventory Management Guide in the Adobe Commerce Merchant Documentation.

Performance concerns:

  • Monitor export process performance after installation
  • Consider scheduling resyncs during low-traffic periods

Logging and debugging

The module logs export errors and warnings to the standard Commerce logging system. If you encounter issues during product synchronization, check the data export logs.
