About this method

You are currently reading the JavaScript API client v4 documentation. Check our migration guide to learn how to upgrade from v3 to v4. You can still access the v3 documentation.

You are currently reading the Ruby API client v2 documentation. Check our migration guide to learn how to upgrade from v1 to v2. You can still access the v1 documentation.

Send a click event to capture clicked items.

Note that unlike clickedObjectIDsAfterSearch, clickedObjectIDs doesn’t take a queryID. Therefore, clickedObjectID events only go towards personalization. clickedObjectIDsAfterSearch events go towards both personalization and Search Analytics.

You can find examples of click, conversion, and view events in the Search Analytics section.
