Resource Groups

Resources with common characteristics can now be saved as a Resource Group. To create a resource group,

1. Navigate to Content > Resources. Click on Create New and select Resource Group.

2. Provide a suitable name for the Resource Group and click on Next.

3. Select a set of filter criteria to preview a sample set of resources.

4. Click on Save Resource Group.

To Note:

You can define one global filter per account by navigating to Content > Resources > Create New > Global Filter
Global filter once created appears visually tagged as ‘Global Filter’
Global filter, if available prior to enabling this feature will appear as one of the Resource Group visually tagged as ‘Global Filter’
The system automatically created the following Resource Groups
- All Resources: This group contains all resources available in the system
- All <resource_type>: A set of resource groups for each resource types available in the system. e.g. All Products, All Articles etc.
Each resource group is automatically assigned a unique ID for reference via API and can be found on the details page as Recs UID.
Recs UID is also called as recs_group_uid or group_filters or named_filter.

The Recs UID value is autogenerated from the name of the resources group when it is first created. For example, a resource group named as ‘z_test_05142024’ will have the Recs UID: ‘z_test_05142024’. The Recs UID will not change even if the user later changes the name of the Resource Group.
Recs UID is unique per account. If a resource group’s Recs UID value already exists in the system, an error “Resource Group uid already exists” will be displayed in the UI.
Zeta Markup Language for Recommendation tag now supports a new filter by name group_filters (Recs UID) where a resource group can be directly specified

CODE

{% recommendation products
| count: 3
| group_filters: "out_of_stock_products"
%}

Zeta Markup Language for Resources tag now supports a new filter by name group_filters where a resource group can be directly specified.

CODE

{% resources products
| count: 3
| group_filters: "out_of_stock_products"
%}

When using Resources tag, note that It may take up to 30 minutes for resources to be qualified as part of the resource group.

Recommendation APIs

Basic Recommendation API supports a new path parameter by name “group_filter” that

CODE

curl 'https://recommendations.api.boomtrain.com/v1/your_site/email/user@example.com?group_filter=gold_credit_cards

Advanced Recommendation API supports a new parameter as part of the section payload called “group_filters”, and can accept multiple resource groups.

CODE

{
  sections: [
    {
		"name": "credit_cards",
		"group_filters": [
			"gold_credit_cards",
			"platinum_credit_cards"
		],
		"count": 5
    }
  ]
}

If there are not enough resources to recommend, the API will return an error with status code 422 (There are not enough recommendable resources to satisfy this request)
