Relevance - feed should contain only relevant data on ads.
Editing previously imported ads should be implemented by updating previously existing data. 

XML Feed format​

XML file must contain the root element 'catalog' with the feed creation date:
<catalog generated="YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm+02:00">...</catalog>

Each ad is formed by the element 'offer', for which you need to define a unique ID in the file.
