Listings – How to fill out location information in spreadsheets
How to fill out location information in spreadsheets
StoreID (Required)
A unique code (up to 36 characters) that PinMeTo uses to identify each location.
- Allowed characters: letters, numbers, or symbols (e.g.
#
,-
). - Facebook restriction: must be alphanumeric (A–Z, 0–9).
- Once a StoreID is set, the only way to update it is by editing each listing on every network manually. This process is error‑prone and can cause sync failures!
- Don’t work around it by creating a new location or changing the address—this creates duplicate listings and makes things worse.
- If you must change a StoreID, please contact support for guidance.
