Recommend

Implement product recommendations in your Shopify app with Algolia Recommend

This is a beta feature according to Algolia’s Terms of Service (“Beta Services”).

The Algolia AI Search & Discovery app for Shopify includes an app block built with Algolia Recommend that you can add to your store’s pages to show product recommendations.

Before you begin

Before you can show recommendations in your store, check that you’ve set up Recommend:

• Enable Algolia for your Shopify theme.
• Send click and conversion events. Algolia Recommend relies on click and conversion events to continuously improve its recommendations. You can also upload events from a CSV file to get started.
• You have a trained Recommend model in your Algolia dashboard.
• Recommend isn’t compatible with Shopify Markets.

Enable Recommend

1. To add the Algolia Recommend app block to your theme, open your theme editor, click Add section, go to the Apps tab, and select Algolia Recommend.

   

2. Select the Recommend model for the app block, complete the settings, save your changes.

   

After the model training is complete and meets the criteria set for the app block, the recommendations app block is shown on your store’s page.

Available models

Only the Trending items model is available outside the product page. The other Recommend models require a variant ID.

Customize

To customize how your recommendations are rendered, use custom hooks
