To check your data sources in Merchant Center with Claude or ChatGPT, connect your Google Merchant Center account to PaidSync.ai and ask the assistant to list the data sources in my Merchant Center account, which shows where your product data comes from. It reads only.

Which Tools Do the Work

Your catalog can come from several feeds. One read tool lists them:

merchant_list_data_sources lists the data sources of an account, including the primary one.
set_active_merchant_account chooses the account.

merchant_list_data_sources and set_active_merchant_account only read your account. That is the full set you need to check your data sources.

How the Workflow Is Built

Tool	What it does
merchant_list_data_sources	Lists data sources
set_active_merchant_account	Chooses the account

Know the primary source before you write products, because upserts need it.

How to Check Your Data Sources in Merchant Center With Claude in 5 Steps

These steps use Claude to check your data sources. PaidSync.ai also works in ChatGPT, and the prompts are the same.

Connect Merchant Center to PaidSync.ai

Sign up at paidsync.ai, then connect Google Merchant Center on Google's own sign-in screen. There is no API key to paste and no config file to edit. Use the Google login that has access to the Merchant Center account where you want to check your data sources.

Add PaidSync.ai to Claude

Add PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my Merchant Center accounts" and choose the one to check your data sources in.

Choose the account

Set the active account.

List sources

Ask for the data sources.

Note the primary

Copy the primary source ID.

How to Check the Result

The primary source should match what you see in Merchant Center.

Use these two prompts to check your data sources, in this order.

"List the data sources in my active Merchant Center account."

Reads your account and changes nothing.

"Which of those is the primary data source?"

Reads your account and changes nothing.

How PaidSync.ai Protects You

Nothing is changed. merchant_list_data_sources and set_active_merchant_account only read Google Merchant Center, so nothing you do to check your data sources edits your setup.
Safe to repeat. You can run the lookup to check your data sources as often as you like, because these tools only read. Tokens are encrypted at rest.
Your own sign-in. The tools that check your data sources reach Merchant Center only through the access you approve on Google's own screen, and you can remove that access at any time from your Google Account.

Every Google Merchant Center tool PaidSync.ai offers is listed on the Merchant Center MCP server tools page, including the tools used to check your data sources.
