expiration_date attribute dropped
Dec 18, 2009
As we had mentioned a few weeks ago, we have dropped the expiration_date attribute from all Basic and Advanced data feeds. This field is no longer required by Google. All products will automatically be listed for the maximum number of days (30) by Google. If you were using this field in a feed for non-Google purposes, please be aware that the column order has shifted now that the expiration_date column has been removed.
We have also deleted all old "Live Search Product Upload" feeds. This has been replaced by Bing Cashback.
