Enabling personalization

The personalization service is based on a client-server architecture. To enable it, you must set up authentication parameters that you receive from Ibexa.

Getting authentication parameters

First, either you or another Ibexa user responsible for managing the website must request access to the service.

Setting up customer credentials

When you receive the confirmation email, add the credentials to your configuration. In the root folder of your project, edit either the .env or .env.local file by adding the following lines with your customer ID and license key: 

1
2
3
RECOMMENDATION_CUSTOMER_ID=12345
RECOMMENDATION_LICENSE_KEY=67890-1234-5678-90123-4567
RECOMMENDATION_HOST_URI=https://server_uri

Configuring event tracking

Next, you must configure the recommendation client that tracks visitor events in relation to Content Types.

Configuring recommendation logic

Once you enable the recommendation client, you can go back to the Back Office, refresh the Personalization dashboard and proceed with configuring the logic used to calculate the recommendation results.
