How to update information about branches

There are several ways to add branches and update data about them:

Manually in the Yandex Business interface

This method is suitable for chains with a small number of branches (less than 30) in which information about branches rarely changes.

For more information, see How to manually update chain information.

As XML (recommended) or CSV files

This is convenient for chains with more than 30 branches.

Advantages of updating from an XML file:

• Data about your branches will always be up-to-date in all Yandex services and mobile applications. Your potential customers will be able to easily find the nearest branch using Yandex Maps or Yandex Navigator, or by looking it up in Yandex Search or other Yandex services.
• You can fully automate the transfer of data about branches by configuring exports from 1C, ERP (SAP, Axapta), or other systems.
• You can provide all the information about branches, including photos and additional parameters, in XML files.

Post the data on your website and contact support

You can post data about branches on your website so it's automatically collected by the Yandex Business robot. This is the least efficient way, because there may be difficulties when obtaining data. Use it only if other options don't work for you.
