The Dynamic Product Feed filters results based on how custom product feed headers and their values are mapped to screen responses. See each scenario below to properly map your specific product feed to your experience.
Before you begin
Add your questions/answers to each screen. The below instructions assume the use of standard buttons. If you're using Select All That Apply buttons, we recommend also reading the instructions here.
Name each screen clearly.
Prepare your product feed for manual upload or configure your integration.
Connect a product feed to your experience.
Map 1:1 (1 value to 1 response)
Mapping unique columns to unique questions/answers is the most common way that the dynamic product feed is used. In this scenario, you never map the same column from your feed onto more than one question.
The end result is that all mapped values across questions have an AND relationship. To configure:
Select Product Feed Logic.
Choose the screen you want to map first and click Select a field to tie this question to.
From the dropdown, select the custom header that corresponds to this question.
If you're unable to tell which it should map to, double check your screen names and product feed header names for clarity.
For each answer (row) underneath the question, click the dropdown and select the corresponding value from the product feed.
For example, Acne = Acne, Hydration = Hydration.
Click Save.
Note that this product feed only has one value per cell. It is permutation based. If your file contains comma separated values, read below.
Map many:1 (many values to 1 response)
Tying multiple values from your product feed to a button click will OR the product feed for that selection, increasing the number of products considered when filtering.
Select Product Feed Logic.
Choose the screen you want to map first and click Select a field to tie this question to.
From the dropdown, select the custom header that corresponds to this question.
If you're unable to tell which it should map to, double check your screen names and product feed header names for clarity.
For each answer (row) underneath the question, click the dropdown and select the corresponding values from the product feed.
For example, Signs of Aging = Signs of Aging OR Dullness.
Each selection will appear with a comma separating the values.
Click Save.
Map a product feed with comma separated values
Sometimes, if your product feed is exceedingly large, you may choose to use a product feed with comma separated values (blue, green, red). That combination (blue, green, red) will appear as a unique value for mapping.
Note that mapping (Blue, Green) to a button click is not the same as mapping (Blue) and (Green) to a response. Products that are Blue only do not count as products with the (Blue, Green) combination.
Map 1 to many (1 column to many questions)
If you map the same custom header across more than one question, your product feed will use 'OR" rules by default. Doing so will expand the amount of items from your catalog that become relevant to your end user.
For example, if on question #2 a user selects a response that’s mapped to Green items from your catalog, and then on question #5 the user clicks a response that’s mapped to Blue items from your catalog, Jebbit will display all blue products and all green products because Jebbit looks for items that contain Blue OR Green descriptors from your feed.
Map multiple columns to 1 question
It is rare, but sometimes, you want to map multiple columns (custom headers) in your product feed to a single screen. This creates an AND relationship. To configure:
Select Product Feed Logic.
Click Select a field to tie this question to and map the first header and its corresponding values.
Click the + next to the header title.
A new option appears to the right of the header. Click Select a field...
Choose the header you want to map and map its corresponding values accordingly.

FAQ
What is the difference between "AND" and "OR" logic?
By nature, “AND” rules will limit the amount of items from your catalog that are relevant to the end user because only items with “descriptor 1” AND “descriptor 2” will become relevant.
“OR” rules will expand the amount of relevant items from your catalog that a user can get matched to. This is because “OR” rules imply that an item with either “descriptor 1” OR “descriptor 2” would be relevant.
I've used the 'Tags' field from Shopify and have mapped that across all of my screens. Will Jebbit use "AND" or "OR" logic in this scenario?
Shopify feeds are unique in this regard. Even though most manual feeds will have a unique column created for each question asked, it's common for Shopify users to map the same "Tags" column across more than one question. In this case, Jebbit will "AND" Tags by default.
