Example

An e-commerce brand wants to promote relevant merchandise to a customer, that is in stock, but only when the customer engagement score is within a range relevant to each individual Action. The brand has configured minimum and maximum experience score attributes as well as a tags collection that contains the availability status.

Dyn A - example template

The template is configured with three filters to ensure that all selected merchandising Actions are:

  • greater than or equal to the minimum score,
  • less than or equal to the maximum score, and
  • contains the tag In Stock.

When used as part of an Optimization Point. MXO evaluates each Action returned from the template against the Qualifies for Merchandising Actions Eligibility Rule.
