Page Size & Default Image Size

Set the page size of your synced data with the dropdown, and set the default image size of your product images by entering the dimensions in the text box.

Larger page sizes may sync your data faster, while a smaller page size could help avoid host server timeout during sync.

If you have custom product attributes you'd like to include in your data, type in the attribute value names in the text box below Custom Attributes.
Include Out-of-stock Products
To include out-of-stock products in your synced data, choose "Yes" from the dropdown in this section.
Order History
To include retroactive orders with your data, choose how far back in time you'd like to sync with the dropdown under "Order History". Historical order data can help quickly improve your store's Recommendations and Search functionalities.
Sync Time

With the Sync Time dropdown, set the time of day when your webshop data syncs to Clerk.io (default is "when needed").

Instant Search Settings:

Provide the Content name for your live search next, which can be found next to data-template in your Live Search embed code within your my.clerk.io Content. This is likely live-search.
-
Last, provide your Live Search Input Selector and Form Selector, which can be found by inspecting your webshop's search box with your browser, and identifying the ID or class associated with its input and form. In this example, .searchinput as the input selector, and #search-form for the form.
