Guides
The working manual for TrueSpec: publishing a catalog, keeping it updated without stepping on your own edits, automating with the API, and building a rock-solid sync on the consuming side.
Publishing your catalog
How to get a product catalog into TrueSpec — preparing your spreadsheet, mapping columns, fixing validation errors, and understanding draft vs. published.
Updating your catalog: what wins when data conflicts
The rules TrueSpec applies when a new upload, an API push, and hand edits touch the same product — field locks, additive attributes, and how to run one source of truth.
Automating updates with the write API
Push catalog updates straight from your ERP, PIM, or website — publish-scoped keys, batch imports, image batches, and the reports that come back.
Product images and documents
The three ways images get into TrueSpec, how replacement works on re-upload, and attaching spec sheets, warranties, and install guides as PDFs.
Consuming catalogs: a sync guide for dealers, ERPs, and storefronts
Reading the unified feed with one key, syncing deltas with updated_since and ETags, reconciling removals, and mapping your item numbers to vendor products.
