Integrate with Sift Lab

How to set up the integration with Sift Lab and how to use the Sift Lab Product Recommendation component

Show personalized product recommendations from Sift Lab in your Triggerbee campaigns. Recommendations are displayed with the Data Repeater component, which fetches the products from Sift Lab and repeats your product design for each one.

Before you start: Contact your Client Manager at Sift Lab to prepare your account and get your integration credentials.

Set up the integration

  1. In Triggerbee, go to Apps & Integrations and activate the Sift Lab app.

  2. Enter the API key you received from Sift Lab.

  3. Select the Sift Lab database (data model) that Triggerbee should access.

  4. Save the integration.

Your Sift Lab recommendation profiles are now available as data sources in the Data Repeater component.

Add product recommendations to a campaign

1. Add a Data Repeater

In the campaign editor, add the Data Repeater component to your campaign. It works in both overlays and embedded campaigns.

2. Choose your recommendation profile

Under General → Data Source, open the Data Source dropdown and select the Sift Lab recommendation profile you want to show.

3. Configure the settings

Setting

What it does

Direction

Shows the products in a row (horizontally) or in a column (vertically).

Max items

The maximum number of products to show.

Sort by

Sorts the products by a property. Leave it empty to keep the order Sift Lab recommends.

Carousel

Shows the products in a sliding carousel instead of a static list. Recommended when you show many products or want a good mobile experience.

Items per view

(Carousel only) How many products are visible at the same time.

Preview Layout

Shows all repeated products in the editor while you design, so you can see what the final result will look like. This only affects the editor.

Properties

Lists all product attributes Sift Lab sends, for example title, image, brand and category_level_1. Click the copy icon to copy a property.

Spacing, padding, alignment, sizes and colors are set under the Style tab. To set them separately for mobile, adjust the mobile width and height.

4. Design one product

Design a single product inside the Data Repeater. The design is repeated for every recommended product.

Add product content with components such as Image, Text and Button, and insert the properties with double curly braces:

  • Text: {{title}}, {{brand}}, {{price}}

  • Image: use {{image}} as the image source

  • Link: use the product URL property (for example {{link}}) as the link on an image or button

Tip: If you need an attribute that is missing from the Properties list, contact Sift Lab support. The available attributes depend on your Sift Lab data model.

5. Preview and publish

Preview the campaign on your site to see real products, then publish it.
