Implementation workflow in shopvibes:

- Assign product categories to match Leroy Merlin’s Mirakl taxonomy.
- Use shopvibes’ AI-based mapping layer to automatically align your product attributes with Leroy Merlin’s required and recommended fields.
- Generate a compliant feed:
- API sync when supported, or
- Excel/CSV export based on Mirakl templates for manual upload.
- Upload or sync your product data to the Mirakl seller portal.
- Fix validation warnings flagged by Mirakl (shopvibes highlights missing attributes).

Result: a clean, consistent catalog that meets Leroy Merlin’s strict formatting and attribute rules.
