Quick Setup Reminder: Be sure to set up the required cookies before getting started.

Athos Cookies

This is a list of cookies we require to be set as the data stored will be used in our API to allow the reporting suite and personalization (if on plan) features to function properly.

Autocomplete Module

An Autocomplete Module is used to perform a preliminary search that displays a preview of results and list of suggestions to the shopper before a search is submitted on the site.

Result Pages

Search results is what we are known for, however, we also offer the ability to integrate results on Category pages as well as support Content search functionality!

👋
If you are not signed up for Content search and are interested in this feature, please reach out to your Athos Point of Contact(POC) for more information as this will require a separate Athos account and data setup.

In the following documents we will go over all that is needed from our Search API endpoint to build your own search, category, and blog search result pages with filtering, sort, pagination and more on your site.

Beacon Tracking

The Beacon API tracks shopper interactions across your e-commerce site to provide data for analytics, reporting, and personalization. Track events like search interactions, product clicks, cart additions, and purchases to enable insights on shopper behavior and power personalized experiences.

Merchandising

Product Merchandising in Athos is handled using our Visual Merchandiser tool. Merchandising campaigns function to influence how the Autocomplete or Search API would naturally return results.

Personalized Recommendations

Athos’ Personalized Recommendations helps you to deliver intuitive shopping experiences and skyrocket conversions. The recommended products are typically displayed within a carousel throughout the site. Some key areas are the Home Page, Category Pages, Cart Page, No Results Page, Product Page, or within a slideout cart.

Product Finder Module (optional)

Product Finders are a tool to help your shoppers quickly find the products they are looking for - think of it as a way to easily navigate into a more narrow, filtered Product Results set. Commonly implemented as a set of Attribute drop-down selectors, these Finders can exist on your Home Page, globally across the Header of your website, or even on a single Category Page or Landing Page.

🚨
Email and SMS Recommendations are also a possible feature to be installed on your site where Athos is integrated via a custom build that queries our API directly, however, it is NOT accessible from the API. Please reach out to your POC for more information about this feature.
