Section 23 — Outgoing Delivery & Storefront Activation

The Outgoing section controls how CatalogPilot delivers approved enriched content to your live storefront.

This page is intentionally separated from enrichment and review to reinforce an important principle:

CatalogPilot enrichment and CatalogPilot delivery are independent.

You can enrich, review, and approve content without delivering anything to your storefront until you explicitly choose to do so.

What Outgoing Delivery Does

When enabled, CatalogPilot:

  • Injects approved enriched metadata at page render time
  • Delivers content only when pages are viewed by visitors or crawlers
  • Does not overwrite platform data
  • Does not modify your database, templates, or checkout
  • Can be disabled instantly without cleanup or rollback

Delivery operates entirely at the render layer.

Global Delivery Status & FailSafe Switch

At the top of the page you’ll see:

  • Running status indicator
  • FailSafe toggle

The FailSafe Switch is a global on/off control for CatalogPilot delivery.

When FailSafe is:

  • On → enriched content is delivered
  • Off → your storefront immediately returns to native platform behavior

No content is removed, reverted, or rewritten when disabling delivery.

This is a hard safety cutoff, not a soft pause.

Installation Options

CatalogPilot supports three installation paths. All achieve the same result.

Option 1 — Manual Install (Recommended)

Best for merchants or teams comfortable placing code directly.

  • Paste the provided script into your site’s <head>
  • Works on any supported platform theme
  • Fastest and most direct delivery path

Support can install this for you with temporary access if preferred.

Option 2 — Google Tag Manager

Recommended if your site already uses GTM.

  • Add a Custom HTML tag with the CatalogPilot script
  • Set trigger to All Pages
  • Publish

This method introduces a minimal additional load step but remains fully supported.

Option 3 — Send to Your Developer

For agencies or internal developers.

  • Download the .txt file
  • Share with your developer
  • No additional context required — this is a standard header script

CatalogPilot Delivery Script

The delivery script shown on this page is unique to your account and environment.

It contains:

  • Your site identifier
  • Delivery endpoint reference

This script only reads configuration and injects approved metadata.

It does not transmit orders, customers, or private data.

Installation Verification

Use Verify Installation to confirm that delivery is active on your storefront.

This check:

  • Confirms the script is detected
  • Verifies delivery readiness
  • Does not crawl or alter your site

Safety Guarantees

CatalogPilot delivery:

  • Never overwrites platform data
  • Never modifies stored content
  • Can be disabled instantly via FailSafe
  • Delivers metadata only at render time

Your platform remains the system of record at all times.

Support Access

If you need help installing or verifying delivery, you can:

  • Book a 10-minute screenshare
  • Allow temporary access for support installation
  • Contact support directly

Most installations take only a few minutes.

Key Takeaway

Outgoing Delivery is explicit, reversible, and controlled.

You decide:

  • When enriched content is delivered
  • How it is installed
  • When it can be disabled

CatalogPilot never assumes delivery — it waits for your approval.
