Test the Alerts integration
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
This is the last test phase before your alerts are launched to the public.
Our goal is to test your integration to identify any issues pre-launch. You will publish alerts to your Production CAP feed, and Google will subscribe to that feed; however, alerts will not be shown publicly during the testing period.
Incorporate Google feedback
At all points throughout the integration process, we may have additional feedback, questions, and requests for you about the content, format, or delivery of alerts. This is especially true during testing.
Provide CPA historical data upon request
Google may request historical CAP data for testing.
