Summary

Retrieve similar products

Description

Storefront SDK Usage

SDK Method: sdk.catalog.listSimilarProducts()

Example:

typescript
// Basic usage - get similar products for a specific product
const { data, error } = await sdk.catalog.listSimilarProducts({
  product_id: ["prod_01H9XYZ12345ABCDE"]
});

// Advanced usage with pagination and custom sorting
const { data, error } = await sdk.catalog.listSimilarProducts({
  product_id: ["prod_01H9XYZ12345ABCDE"],
  page: 1,
  limit: 20,
    sort_by: '{"relevance":"desc"}'
});

// Override customer group ID for this specific request
const { data, error } = await sdk.catalog.listSimilarProducts(
  {
    product_id: ["prod_01H9XYZ12345ABCDE"],
    page: 1,
    limit: 20
  },
  {
    "x-customer-group-id": "01H9XYZ12345USERID" // Override default SDK config
  }
);

if (error) {
  console.error("Failed to get similar products:", error.message);
} else {
  console.log("Similar products found:", data.products.length);
  console.log("Pagination:", data.pagination);

  data.products.forEach(product => {
    console.log(`Similar: ${product.name} - ${product.price}`);
  });
}
