Use the Validator

After installation, the Recommendation Validator runs and you can use it right away.

When you navigate to a site that's using Commerce Cloud Einstein features, the Recommendation Validator instantly validates site recommendation activities and sorting rules. When the validator recognizes an event, a numbered footnote appears in the Google Chrome extension icon. This number increments with each identified event.

You can test site recommendation activities using the Commerce Cloud Einstein Recommendation Validator.

  1. Trigger activities by navigating around your storefront.
  2. To see the status of triggered activities, click the Validator icon (1) when numerical footnotes appear.
    Note: If recommendations or email personalization are enabled, those tabs populate with related information.
  3. Review any recognized events (2).
