Overview
An overview of our Search features
Search
Malachyte currently supports query-based search APIs that can be called directly from the frontend. These APIs provide immediate utility—ranging from intelligent fallback handling to full search engine replacement—while allowing search behavior to be customized through portal-driven configurations. Search is designed to work out of the box with no additional setup, while still supporting advanced use cases such as attribution, pagination, and future personalization.
Playground
The Playground allows you to preview both search and carousel strategies in a safe environment before they go live.
Synonyms
Creating synonyms in the Malachyte portal helps ensure that users find the correct search results even if they use different terminology. For example, a user searching for a "tote bag” should also see results for a “shoulder bag” and “carryall”.
Merchandising Rules
Use our Rules feature to fine-tune exactly which products surface to your customers.
1. Conditions
A Condition is a single, atomic check against your product catalog.
- Examples:
Price < $50,Category = Jackets, orMargin > 20%.
2. Rules
A Rule acts as a container for one or more Conditions.
- Conditions within a single Rule can be combined using AND / OR logic.
3. Multiple Rules
Rules themselves can also be combined with AND logic. This flexibility allows you to build everything from simple filters to complex, multi-layer logic trees.
