If you've made it through Part 1 of this series and feel comfortable taking on this next part, then welcome! Otherwise please familiarise yourself with Part 1 before moving onto this part.
Another great little article to read is : Creating Deeplinks
Search Category
Sometimes you may have a particular sale event that won't last for long, or you may just wish to link to a particular brand but a specific brand category hasn't been setup yet in Fredhopper or similar.
This is where deeplinking straight to a search term is helpful and luckily incredibly easy to set up under category.
Under the Deeplink URL field, all that you will need to put in is :
/products/search/SEARCHTERMHERE
This will then direct the user straight to that search's results, as if it were a regular category.
Deeplink to other areas of App
If you've read the Creating Deeplinks article, you will see some other options that can be deeplinked to. For example lookbooks, pages, product details, wishlist and even bag.
The only difference if you wish to use the Deeplink URL feed under category, is that the URL scheme needs to be removed.
Here's a quick list of most available options that can be used for deeplinking :
Area of App | Deeplink URL | Example | Required Parameter |
Address Book Screen | addressbook | addressbook | |
Bag Tab | bag | bag | |
Edit My Profile | editMyProfile | editMyprofile | |
Page with Sub Pages | /pages/{parentPageID} | /pages/2409 | ID of the Parent Page |
Login Form Screen | login | login | |
Lookbook Details | /lookbook/{lookbookID} | /lookbook/595 | ID of Lookbook |
My Account/Profile | myaccount | myaccount | |
Order History | orders | orders | |
Page Details | /pages/detail/{pageID} | /pages/1234 | ID of Page |
Product Barcode Scan Screen | scan | scan | |
Product Category (with Sub Categories) | /category/{categoryID} | /category/1231345 | ID of Category |
Product Listing Page | /products/category/{categoryID} | /products/category/53453 | ID of Category |
Product Details Page | /products/detail/{productID} | /products/details/125332 | ID of Product |
Recently Viewed | /products/recentlyviewed/ | ||
Signup Form | signup | signup | |
Vouchers/coupons | vouchers | vouchers | |
Wishlist | wishlist | wishlist |
Please note that not all features might be enabled in the app.
To find the ID of any of these options, is the exact same method used in Part 1 of this guide for the redirect categories where you will just navigate to it in the CMS and you will see the ID in the browser's address bar.
