Molin natively supports the Prefixbox JSON feed format. If you already have a Prefixbox JSON product feed, you can connect it directly to Molin without any changes.
Prefixbox supports JSON, XML, and CSV feed formats. Molin currently supports the JSON format only. If you use XML or CSV, please contact us — we can add support for your format.

Feed format

Molin accepts both the standard Prefixbox format (camelCase keys) and the PascalCase variant used by some implementations. Keys are normalized automatically.

Example

{
  "Timestamp": "03/19/2026 12:00:00 +01:00",
  "Products": [
    {
      "Identifier": "TV_123456",
      "DisplayText": "Samsung TV 55\" OLED",
      "Url": "https://shop.com/product/tv-123456",
      "Description": "55 inch OLED TV with 4K HDR support",
      "Price": "499990",
      "OldPrice": "599990",
      "ImageUrl": "https://images.shop.com/tv-123456.jpg",

    }
  ]
}
A flat array format (without the Products wrapper) is also supported:
[
  {
    "identifier": "TV_123456",
    "displayText": "Samsung TV 55\" OLED",
    "url": "https://shop.com/product/tv-123456",
    "price": "499990"
  }
]
