Price agents

The urls to get price agent price lists

Following urls fetch the price agents price lists which are implemented by default.

• http://your-domain-name/PriceAgent.axd/Prisjakt
• http://your-domain-name/PriceAgent.axd/Pricerunner
• http://your-domain-name/PriceAgent.axd/KelkoXml
• http://your-domain-name/PriceAgent.axd/KelkoTxt
• http://your-domain-name/PriceAgent.axd/KelkoCsv

You need to register the above urls with the corresponding price agent. Note that domain name used in the DNS record should match the domain name specified in the website (as shown in ControlPanel\Web publishing\Web sites\ ).

In Product Catalog there are an option for each product, to determine if the product should be included in the price agent list.

By default, the items that are out of stock are not included in the price agents price lists. If you wish to add even items that are out of stocks, you need to enable it in the control panel as shown below.

Price agent prices are not real-time
