</Note>

DPA feeds automatically add user-generated content to your product advertising campaigns. Connect your existing product feed with your approved posts to create more engaging ads that showcase real customers using your products.

Navigate to [UGC -> DPA feeds](https://app.cevoid.com/dpa-feeds) to manage your feeds.

## How DPA feeds work

Cevoid enhances your existing product feeds by adding user-generated content as additional product images or videos. For each product ID in your original feed, Cevoid adds posts as `<additional_image>` tags when there's a matching product tag.

1. Provide your existing product feed URL
2. Configure feed settings (channel, unique identifier, filtering)
3. Cevoid creates an enhanced version with UGC added
4. Use the new feed URL in your advertising platform

## Unique identifier

Choose the product ID field that matches how you've tagged products in Cevoid:

| Identifier      | Description                           |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| `id`            | Standard product ID (most common)     |
| `item_group_id` | Product group identifier for variants |
| `gtin`          | Global Trade Item Number              |
| `mpn`           | Manufacturer Part Number              |

<Warning>
  The unique identifier must match the product IDs used when tagging posts. Mismatched identifiers result in no UGC being added.
</Warning>

***

## Filtering options

**Exclude products without posts** — Remove products from your feed that don't have matching UGC. Useful for creating UGC-only feeds for specific campaigns.

**Limit posts by date** — Only include posts created after a specified date. Accepts relative dates like "7 days ago" or "1 month ago". Useful for seasonal campaigns or ensuring fresh content.

**Number of posts per product** — Controls how many UGC images are added per product. Higher numbers provide more creative options but increase feed size.
