Custom export channels

Custom export channels

The custom export channels in xyxle let you design and deploy bespoke data exports and feeds tailored to any partner or system-without writing a single line of code or your partners needing access to xyxle. Configure exactly which fields, formats, and delivery methods each channel requires, then publish with one click.

Key capabilities

  • Custom format & content
    Create the exact specification sheets with the required fields and in the right format for your buyers.
  • Multiple delivery methods
    Schedule exports via FTP/SFTP, email attachment, REST API push, or generate on-demand downloads—all managed centrally.
  • Versioned templates
    Maintain multiple template revisions for seasonal campaigns or evolving partner requirements, and roll back to prior versions if needed.
  • Preview & validation
    Test each channel feed against your rules and sample data-catch mapping errors or missing fields before any data leaves xyxle.
  • Automated scheduling
    Set up one-time, recurring or event-driven publishes (e.g., after approval workflows complete) so channels stay up to date without manual intervention.

Common use cases

  • Retailer-specific feeds
    Create a CSV export for Retailer A with 15 required fields, an XML feed for Market B with custom tags, and a JSON API for digital partners—never fill out specifications manually again.
  • Distributor sub-feeds
    Filter your wholesale assortment by region or product line, then deliver custom Excel files to each local distributor on a weekly schedule.
  • Regulatory reporting
    Generate a specialized XML or CSV channel containing only compliance-relevant attributes (e.g., allergen declarations, certifications) for auditors or authorities.

Benefits

  • Maximized flexibility
    Support any partner’s data requirements out of the box withput hours of filling out spec sheets, no IT tickets or costly custom development necessary.
  • Faster onboarding
    Spin up new channels in minutes-simply copy an existing template, adjust mappings, and go live.
  • Reduced errors
    Centralize mapping logic and validation so every export adheres to partner specifications, eliminating manual rework.
  • Scalable data distribution
    As your network grows-more partners, more formats, more regions-you add or clone channels without impacting your master data or workflows.

With xyxle’s Custom Channel Functionality, you gain an infinitely configurable output engine-empowering you to serve any downstream system or partner with precision and speed.
