Guide · Bol data
Bol Data your finance team will actually use
Bol data is the seller dataset behind bol.com operations: orders, items, ads, fees, returns, and stock. In Marktspan it lands in one tenant-scoped model so P&L, Sales Pulse, and Bol MCP answer the same question. You stop reconciling Partner exports with Ads Manager during the Monday review.
What Bol data operators actually need
Channel dashboards show GMV and campaign ACoS. Operators need grain, connection, and cost completeness — NL vs BE, EAN vs campaign, fees vs ad spend.
- Orders and items with marketplace identity (Bol NL / Bol BE)
- Sponsored Products spend, revenue, search terms, and audit of bid changes
- Fees, returns, and fulfillment so contribution is not a spreadsheet guess
One model, three ways to read it
The same Bol data feeds the app, Mark AI, and MCP. Claude does not get a second warehouse with different totals.
- P&L and Sales Pulse in the workspace
- Bol MCP at https://marktspan.com/api/mcp for ChatGPT and Claude
- Named metrics (query_metric) instead of raw table dumps
How to get Bol data into an assistant
Connect the Bol shop in Marktspan, enable MCP, paste the server URL, sign in once. Start with whoami and list_connections so the assistant uses the right shop before it quotes revenue.
FAQ
- What is Bol data in Marktspan?
- Ingested Bol.com seller data — orders, ads, fees, and related commercial metrics — scoped to your tenant and connection, not a public Bol catalog dump.
- Can I pull Bol data into ChatGPT?
- Yes, with Bol MCP. Add https://marktspan.com/api/mcp, sign in with Marktspan, and ask about revenue, ads, or keyword demand on the connected shop.
- Is this the Bol Retailer API?
- Marktspan uses Bol APIs to ingest. You query the governed result, not a DIY API wrapper with secrets in a config file.
- Does Bol data include ads?
- Yes, when Ad Pilot is on the plan. Spend, ACoS, campaigns, and search terms sit next to contribution — not in a separate export.
- How is Bol data kept from double-counting?
- Metrics are named, filtered by connection and date, and documented. MCP refuses to invent totals from incomplete joins.
