Configure Robots Meta Tags in Magento 2
Recommended configurations and optimization tips for the OpenAI Commerce extension. Follow these guidelines to ensure your products are presented effectively through AI shopping platforms.
General Guidelines
Do's
✅ Always provide complete seller information—AI platforms use this to answer customer questions
✅ Use "Only Linked Simple Products" for configurable products so AI can recommend specific variants
✅ Map all available product identifiers (GTIN, Brand, MPN) for better product matching
✅ Include detailed product descriptions that answer common customer questions
✅ Set up automatic feed generation via cron to keep data current
✅ Create dedicated CMS pages for policies (privacy, terms, returns)
Don'ts
❌ Don't export configurable parent products—customers can't purchase them directly
❌ Don't leave seller data empty—it's required for proper platform integration
❌ Don't use HTML in descriptions—it gets stripped and may cause formatting issues
❌ Don't include out-of-stock products unless you have a strategy for them
❌ Don't forget to set your return window—AI may reference this when answering questions

Feed Quality Guidelines
Product Titles
Good titles help AI understand and present your products:
| Category | Title Format |
|---|---|
| Apparel | Brand + Gender + Product Type + Color |
| Electronics | Brand + Product + Model + Key Spec |
| Generic | Brand + Product Name + Key Attribute |
Example: "Nike Men's Air Max 90 Running Shoes - White"
Product Descriptions
Write descriptions that answer customer questions:
- What is this product?
- What are the key features?
- Who is it for?
- What materials/specifications?
- What's included?
AI platforms may extract information from descriptions to answer customer queries.
Product Images
- Use high-quality images (minimum 500x500 pixels)
- Show the product clearly on a neutral background
- Include multiple angles if available
- Avoid watermarks or promotional text
Seller Data Best Practices
Return Policy
Your return policy page should clearly state:
- Return window (number of days)
- Condition requirements
- Process for initiating returns
- Refund timeline
AI may reference this when customers ask about returns.
Privacy Policy
Include information about:
- Data collection practices
- How customer data is used
- Third-party sharing
- Customer rights
Terms of Service
Cover:
- Purchase terms
- Shipping information
- Warranty details
