Sending Events
Sending events requires integrating short snippets of code in your front-end components that correspond to your user behaviors. These code snippets leverage Algolia’s Insights API.
Once you’ve implemented Algolia Insight, you can benefit from Algolia with the following features:
- Dynamic Re-ranking – For first time users, leverage the insight of the crowd to promote popular items in the results.
- Personalization – For returning users, personalize the results tailored to their preferences. Personalization can be applied in the following parts of your website/app:
- Algolia Recommend – Display recommendations on your website to encourage your users to expand their search and browse more broadly.
- Click and conversion analytics - For your business users, measure the performance of your queries and product listing pages.
- A/B testing – For your business users, A/B testing verifies the results of your relevance strategy.
Specifically, this section covers various implementation approaches on the following topics:
- How to use events and signals to enhance results.
- Which methods to use to send events to Algolia.
- Learn about connectors and integrations.
