The Show Products action lets you display selected items as product cards in chat. The cards can help you attract customers’ attention to your promo offers. Each card includes a picture, description, and button.

Product photos help recreate the in-store experience and keep customers engaged. ChatBot lets you cleverly use them in your chatbot conversation on your Shopify store. They also funnel customers directly to the product page. You can shorten the sale cycle and increase your conversion rates using the Show Products action.

To use the Show products action, you must integrate ChatBot with Shopify first.

Test your bot to check whether your cards are displayed properly. The items will be available as cards in the chat. When the user selects the card button, they’ll be taken to the corresponding product page in your Shopify store.

You can select up to 11 products from your Shopify store by typing the product name or selecting items from the list. The selected products will be displayed as cards in the widget. You can customize the product card — edit its title, text, and button title.

What to do when the bot cannot find the itemsLink icon

When the bot cannot find available items, it goes to the Failure block. Add a Bot response block there to redirect it. This will let the chatbot start the process again.

Use the Quick reply response to give the user the option to circle back with a button click. In the configuration, choose the Go to block button type and the correct block from the bot structure.
