API

Added

  • Search: Added improved semantic search support for short East Asian queries. One- and two-character terms written with common Han characters, Hiragana, Katakana, or Hangul can now participate in semantic matching, with native character distinctions preserved.

Changed

  • Search: Improved Semantic Search performance, reducing processing time by up to 80%.
  • Search: Improved Semantic Search recall by 3% on average.

My Relewise

Added

  • Added support for enabling and disabling entities directly from My Relewise.
  • Ask AI: Added more Dataset-aware context, including the Dataset name, Dataset ID, server URL, the user's role and effective permissions, and analytics summaries from Revenue Analytics and Search Analytics. Explore Ask AI.
  • Content Delivery: Added a summary with previous-period comparisons and metric deltas, making it easier to view and compare email campaign performance across periods. Explore Content Delivery.

Changed

  • Filter Builders: Improved the user experience when configuring the Relative Date Time condition.
  • Language, Currency, and Date Period selectors now appear only when they affect the current page’s data.

Fixed

  • Filters: Fixed a bug that caused Product Data Keys to be shown incorrectly multiple times.
  • Retail Media: Fixed UI issues where long placement names overlapped the Enabled checkbox and the Ask AI chat frame obscured input fields such as End Time.
  • Search Analytics: Fixed a bug that caused zero hits to be tracked even though results were found.
  • Search Analytics: Fixed a design issue caused by large percentage values by removing decimal places from high percentages.
  • Search Rules: Fixed a bug that caused duplicate-word warnings to appear for stemming rules containing the same word in different language layers.

Integration

Added

  • JS SDK: Added a .take() method to the Popular Search Terms Builder to better support fluent request building.
  • JS SDK: Added support for configuring the keepalive option for tracking requests, allowing them to continue during page navigation or unload where supported by the browser. Available here.
  • Shopify App: Added a warning to the app home page when the app embed is not enabled.
  • Shopify App: Added support for configuring Variant Request Settings.
  • Shopify App: Added support for Shopify's 2026-07 Collections API, including Collections composed of multiple Product sources and the unified Collection model used by Shopify Admin.
  • Shopify App: Added the read_locations scope to retrieve store locations.
  • Web Components: Added standalone components for Popular Product Categories, Popular Content Categories, Popular Search Terms, and Products based on a Search Term.
  • Web Components: Added configurable debounce timing and minimum query length for Product Search Overlays and full-page Product Searches while preserving existing defaults and empty-term full-page searches.
  • Web Components: Added support for configuring Variant Request Settings.
  • Added a new Adobe Marketo integration for email marketing.
  • Demo Shop: Added a Conversational Search experience.
  • Demo Shop: Added shortened Dataset URLs when sharing Datasets in Demo Shops.
  • Demo Shop: Added support for configuring Variant Request Settings in Search and Recommendation requests.
  • Demo Shop: Added support for displaying all available Product Data on the Product Detail Page, including Variant Data when a Variant is selected.
  • Demo Shop: Added support for Variant Resolution, allowing users to clearly distinguish between Products and Variants in Search results.

Changed

  • Shopify App: Improved out-of-stock Product handling by adding a setting to hide sold-out Products.
  • commercetools Connect integration: Simplified installation by letting commercetools Connect create a least-privilege API Client automatically. Full synchronizations are also more resilient: transient failures are retried, and incomplete or empty imports no longer disable existing Products in Relewise. Existing deployments must be redeployed, and the API Client performing the deployment must have manage_api_clients:{projectKey}. Read the updated setup and migration guide.
  • Java SDK: Released version 1.14.0 with configurable client-side batching for Tracking, Search, and Recommendation request collections. Collections exceeding the batch size are automatically split into multiple API requests.
  • Web Components: Changed redirect validation to allow relative URLs.

Fixed

  • Shopify App: Fixed integration failures caused by Shopify API throttling by handling throttled requests more gracefully.
  • Web Components: Kept the search overlay open when the iOS keyboard is dismissed while scrolling Search results.

Documentation

Added

  • Added a Best Practices page for B2B implementations, covering how business-to-business customers can get the most from Relewise. Available here.
  • Added a section to the My Relewise Merchandising page explaining how to target Data in Data Objects through the UI. Available here.
  • Added documentation about Orphaned Categories: Categories without associated entities that Relewise automatically disables and eventually deletes. Available here.
  • How-To: Added documentation for implementing Conversational Search. How-To: Conversational Search.
