Miso's Product / Content APIs let you upload, read, and delete Product / Content records that represent your site's catalog.

Product / Content records

Miso analyzes your Product / Content records to provide personalized search and recommendations that connect users with products or content on your site or application.

Much of Miso's search and personalization capability relies on understanding your catalog in-depth and drawing correlations between your catalog and your users' consumption or purchasing behaviors. In other words, Miso discovers that, with high correlation, users who are interested in certain product attributes are also interested in other products with similar or related attributes. (For simplicity, we will often overload the word "products" to mean items for purchase if you are an eCommerce business, and content to consume if you are a content marketplace.)

To fully optimize your search and recommendations, it is important to provide Miso with Product / Content records that are complete and accurate. We define a set of common attributes that capture the basics of most eCommerce and content media products, such as title, description, categories, tags, material, and authors.

If your products' characteristics cannot be fully captured by these fields, we recommend that you specify custom_attributes. For Miso, the more complete the product information is, the better its personalized search and recommendations become.
