# Pre-Announcement: Product Catalog – Image URL and Collaboration Renamed to Image URLs and Collaborations

On **16 November 2026**, we’re renaming two Product Catalog attributes to show that they can hold several values: Image URL becomes Image URLs, and Collaboration becomes Collaborations. If you use the Product Catalog API, you need to update your integration.

This page is an advance notice so you can prepare before the change ships.

---

## What Is Changing

- **Attribute names:** in the API and in your product data, `image_url` becomes `image_urls`, and `collaboration` becomes `collaborations`. Stored values and their order stay the same.
- **Product Catalog API:** requests and responses use the new field names `image_urls` and `collaborations`.
- **Mapp Intelligence:** the dimensions based on the two attributes are renamed to Image URLs and Collaborations. Mapp updates existing reports, formulas, and templates that use them. The new First Image URL dimension shows only the featured image, so product reports keep one row per product.

> [!WARNING]
> Warning
> 
> There is no transition period. Until 16 November 2026, the API uses only the old field names `image_url` and `collaboration`. From 16 November 2026, it uses only the new ones.

## What You Need to Do

- **If you use the Product Catalog API:** prepare your integration now and switch your requests to `image_urls` and `collaborations` on 16 November 2026. To avoid gaps during the switch, let your integration read both the old and the new names in responses.
- **If you prepare imports yourself:** map your image column to Image URLs. Put the featured image first, because First Image URL uses the first entry.
- **Reports in Mapp Intelligence:** no action needed.

For details on the attributes, see [Product Attribute Model](/v1/docs/connect-product-catalog-product-attributes-model).

## Availability

These changes go live on **16 November 2026** for all Product Catalogs. First Image URL is available for Mapp Intelligence accounts with an activated Product Catalog. The updated API reference and documentation will be published at the same time.
