Installing a Recommendations Profile

If you're happy with how you've set up your profile, then it's time to put it on your site.

Save & Activate

If you haven't done so already, you will need to save & activate your profile before continuing. This locks in the profile-id tag that you've selected to use for this profile and makes it available for use on your website.
Click the "Save Profile" button at the bottom right of this window.

Note: Once your profile is activated, it will display the status "Live" on the main Personalized Recommendations page, as shown below:

Integration

Click the profile to open it. At the bottom left of any tab, the system will display a button "Show Integration Instructions". Click this button to see what's next.

A new window will appear, where instructions will be displayed for your integration type. You will see a link for the instructions specific to your integration.

API Integration

API sites will be provided with a link to our API reference guide.

Snap Integration

Snap and Snap Template sites will select from two options to see instructions for an initial profile or an additional profile, as shown below.

Click an option:

• First time building a profile
• I have more than one profile

Once you have selected the appropriate choice, click the "Next" button at the bottom right.

If this is your first time building a profile, you will see two sections of code to copy and paste into your site: one section for the Head Script (for your header or global layout file) and another section of code for the Placement Div (where you want the widget to appear). Click the "Copy Code" button at the top right of each section to copy the code, then paste it into your store's code.

If this is an additional profile, you will need to click the drop-down and select the position of the new profile before you click the "Next" button at the bottom right.

You will see a highlighted block of code in each section; click the "Copy Code" button in the first section to copy only this highlighted text, which you will insert into the existing header text within your store's header or global layout code.

Click the "Copy Code" button in the Placement Div section to copy the text that you will place in your store's code.

When you are finished updating this integration code in your store, click the "Done" button at the bottom right of the window, or click the "x" in the top right corner to close this window.

Note: If the Integration Instructions window is blank, ask your customer success manager or your professional services consultant to set the integration type for your store. If the type is not selected, the system will display "Unknown", and no instructions will appear on the recommendations profile.
