Isn't this supposed to happen automatically? Has not and I think I qualify. Can someone check?

Hi all,
Here's a little more background on Google Product Search Syndication:
Whenever a sale happens on Etsy for a shop that is not already syndicated, we automatically check for the following criteria:
- the shop has made at least 5 sales (this number may change in the future)
- the shop has good feedback
- the shop has no open non-delivery cases and is in good standing
The key thing to note is that this check is triggered by a sale, and it can take a few days for it to happen.
Shops are being syndicated this way every day automatically. We can also syndicate shops manually when necessary.
Another thing to note:
Google does not yet offer an API that would allow us to provide detailed statistics and reporting for Google Product Search to owners of syndicated shops (the status of submitted items, how many of your items are available on Product Search at any given time). Google plans to in the future, and we will likely take advantage of it. The fact is searching for your shop name on Product Search is not the most reliable way to tell how many of your items are available there. We hope to be able to provide sellers with an easy to get this information in the future -- from inside Shop Stats, for example.

I've been wondering about this myself.

dou dou,
It is supposed to happen automatically. Since your shop did qualify I have syndicated it for you and given your active listings a manual push out to Google.

Hi-- glad you asked, doudou -- could someone tell me what the qualifications are? Thanks!

Hi Sarah,
Same situation for you. I syndicated your shop and gave your active listings a push.
Hope this helps!

Great! my other shop isn't syndicated either and I'm pretty sure I meet the requirements.

Curious if I too qualify and can get a push :)
If not, what is my problem.
Thanks!

Cayenne,
To qualify for syndication a shop must be in good standing, have no overdue bills, no non-delivery cases and have made several sales. For more details read here www.etsy.com/help/article/276.

I found this article - in case it helps anyone. I only have three sales, so not sure I qualify, though I also have positive feedback. Not sure if there's a magic number I need to hit? Would LOVE to get syndicated before this weekend...
