# Basic Tagging
In the event that you are unable to expose the entire subset of the product tagging, you can simply tag the product-id.
```js
nostojs(api => {
api.setTaggingProvider("pageType", "product")
api.setTaggingProvider("products", [{ product_id: "Canoe123" }])
})
```
{% hint style="info" %}
To learn more about the `api.setTaggingProvider` usage, please refer to the [official API documentation](https://nosto.github.io/nosto-js/interfaces/client.API.html#settaggingprovider).
{% endhint %}
The full schema for product tagging is defined [here](https://nosto.github.io/nosto-js/interfaces/client.PushedProduct.html)
or via DOM tagging
```markup
product
Canoe123
```
When the entirety of the product metadata is tagged, Nosto is able to crawl your site and build a 1:1 replica of your product catalog but in this basic example, you will need to use an alternative mechanism for synchronising your catalog with Nosto.
**Note:** If you do use this approach, your account-manager must disable crawling for your account. Failure to do so will result in a broken catalog replica.
### Via an API
In order to keep your product catalog in Nosto up to date, you must leverage the [Products API](/techdocs/apis/rest/products/updating-products-using-the-products-api.md).
### Via a Feed
Nosto does not support a product feed and you must leverage the API in order to synchronise your product catalog.
## Troubleshooting
Once included on all pages, you can review if the site is transmitting data using the [Nosto Debug Toolbar](https://help.nosto.com/get-started/guides/how-to-use-the-nosto-debug-toolbar). If you can see product attributes being picked up under "Tagging" then the product details are correctly set up. You can further verify that products are being indexed to the catalog under the Nosto admin by navigating to Tools → Products:
### Translate attribute
The translate attribute is a [HTML5 standard attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/translate) which specifies whether the value of the element and it's `Text` node children should be translated. If your tagging elements are being translated by e.g. Google Translator then this is the way to opt out elements being translated by Google and possibly other vendors.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.nosto.com/techdocs/implementing-nosto/implement-on-your-website/manual-implementation/product-tagging/minimum-product-tagging.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
