Shopify App Block Filters & Facets
#
Introduction
Facets and filters are used to help users refine their search results or pinpoint specific products on Nimstrata's Shopify App Block search results and collection pages. You can create filters for most product catalog attributes that you import to the Google Cloud Retail API.
#
App Block Filter Settings
The default attributes when you create an App Block are brands, colors, sizes, availability, and categories. You can add or remove additional attributes as desired.
Price Filtering
Dynamic Facets, such as product price ranges, require up to 72 hours of AI model training time. To return price as a filterable attribute, ensure Dynamic Facets are enabled on your Google Cloud Search and Browse serving configuration, then wait for training to complete.
Missing an Attribute?
Ensure the Retrievable Attribute Control is set to True. This change may take up to 12 hours for Google Cloud to return results.

Custom Attributes
If your catalog includes custom attributes, use the full name of the attribute, including "attributes." in the App Block settings. If your catalog has an attribute such as a product dimension, you can choose to return a slider instead of checkboxes.
In the attributes section, add "range:" before the rest of the attribute value, like the example in the screenshot below:
