Administration

Configure and manage the structural components of the platform: users, organisations, websites, data feeds, and competitors.

Access: Administration pages are accessible to users with an admin or owner role. Standard users may have read-only or restricted access to these sections depending on your organisation's configuration.

Users

The Users page (/users) lets you manage who has access to the platform within your organisation.

  2. Enter the new user's email address and name in the dialog.
  3. Save. The user will receive an invitation email with instructions to set their password.

Organizations

The Organizations page (/organizations) is the top-level administrative entity. All websites, feeds, and competitor configurations are grouped under an organisation.

BigQuery integration enables the Data Insights module. Contact the Coolpie.ai team to set this up for your organisation.

Websites

The Websites page (/websites) lists all storefronts being monitored by the platform. Each website is linked to one Organisation and can have its own product feed, competitors, and price rules.

Switching Between Websites

If your account has access to multiple websites, use the website switcher dropdown in the top navigation bar (next to the Coolpie logo) to switch context. All product, matching, and insights data will update to reflect the selected website.

Product Feeds

The Product Feeds page (/product-feeds) manages the data sources that import your product catalogue into Coolpie.ai. The platform fetches feeds on a schedule and uses them to keep your product list, prices, and COGS data up to date.

Supported Feed Formats

Currently supported data mapper formats include:

Contact support if you require a custom feed mapping for a non-standard format.

Feed health: The Website Dashboard shows each feed's status and last fetch timestamp. If a feed shows an error, check that the URL is publicly accessible and the feed format is valid.

Competitors

The Competitors page (/competitors) lists all competitor websites configured for the current website. Coolpie.ai regularly monitors each competitor's prices to keep data up to date.

Competitor List

ColumnDescription
NameThe competitor's domain or display name.

Matching StrategyHow matches for this competitor are handled: Automatic or Confirmation.
ActionsEdit or remove the competitor.

Monitoring Statuses

The Monitoring column shows two indicators — Readiness and Activity:

ReadinessMeaning
LivePrice monitoring is active and delivering data successfully.
Ready, no mappingMonitoring is set up but lacks a product mapping — prices will be collected but may not link correctly to your products until mapping is complete.
Not ReadyPrice monitoring is not yet configured or has a blocking issue. Contact support.
ActivityMeaning
ActivePrice monitoring is running on schedule.
PausedPrice monitoring has been paused (manually or automatically).

Matching Strategies

StrategyBehaviour
Automatic Matches found by the system go live immediately. Use this for high-confidence competitors where GTIN coverage is good.
Confirmation All system-found matches are held in the Confirmation Queue for manual review before being activated. Use this for competitors where product naming is inconsistent or GTIN coverage is poor.
