Shopify's Google & YouTube App Merchant API: protect your Google Shopping performance

Format: 15-Minute On-Demand Briefing by Jael Loos (Product Manager and Google Shopping Specialist, Channable)

Google is replacing its Content API for Shopping with the new Merchant API. While the official deadline is August 18, 2026, Shopify has already started migrating merchants early - often without warning.

This migration changes your Shopify product ID formats. Google treats these as brand-new items, completely wiping out your historical performance data. The result? Your Performance Max and Shopping campaigns will force-re-enter the learning phase, causing spiked CPAs and dropped ROAS.

Watch this 15-minute on-demand session right now to learn how to lock in your data before Shopify updates your store.

In just 15 minutes, you’ll learn:

• How the migration quietly breaks your campaign history.
• Why a data reset triggers performance drops and loss of optimization.
• How to use Channable’s rule template to preserve your original ID structure and protect your revenue.
