Overview
The Autotask product export allows you to send products from your Adaptive Catalog workspace to the Autotask product catalog. Once you have established the link to the Autotask product catalog, updates to the pricing and availability will be synchronized to Autotask.
You can also use the linked products when pushing the products to Autotask Quotes. Instead of pushing as just quote items, they will be linked to the product catalog item.
