GARAN labels for Otto Market

On Otto Market you maintain your articles through Partner Connect. Export your article data with brand and article number, add the guarantee duration and generate every label in a batch.

Export article data from Otto Partner Connect

Otto Market is fed with article data through Partner Connect, directly or via a middleware.

  1. 1

    Sign in to Otto Partner Connect.

  2. 2

    Open your article-data area and export it (or pull the export from the middleware you use to supply Otto).

  3. 3

    Choose a CSV format for the export.

  4. 4

    Open the file in a spreadsheet.

  5. 5

    Keep the brand and article-number columns and add a duration column.

Match the columns to duration, brand and model

Otto gives you brand and article number. You add the guarantee duration as a column.

GARAN column Where it comes from
duration Not an Otto field. Add a "duration" column with the guaranteed years per product (typed in or from your master data).
brand The Brand (Marke) field. Rename this column to "brand".
model Your article number (SKU). Rename it to "model".

Good to know

  • You supply Otto Market through Partner Connect or a connected middleware; the export comes from that source.
  • Keep the guarantee years in your master data where possible, so future exports already carry the duration.
  • Only products with a guarantee of more than two years need a GARAN label.

Where the label goes on the marketplace

Otto Market assembles your listings from the data and media you supply. Include the generated label in the product images you hand to Otto so it shows in the listing.

The CSV the generator expects

The generator reads a plain three-column file. Whatever your shop exports, the goal is a table with these columns.

  • Three columns named duration, brand and model.
  • A header row is optional. With one, the column order does not matter and any extra columns are ignored.
  • Comma or semicolon separated, so German spreadsheet exports work as is.
  • Guarantee duration greater than two years, whole or half years (for example 3 or 4.5, dot or comma).
  • UTF-8 encoded, up to 500 rows per file.
Example CSV
duration brand model
5 ACME X-100
2.5 Gizmo Y-200
8 Contoso Z-300

A ready-made template CSV is available on the upload page once you are signed in.
