Rebuild the content catalog

Steps

1. Check your tags first. The catalog is built from your published content and its taxonomies, and a taxonomy's "Catalog axis" says whether personalization can use it. See "Set up the ways your site groups content".
2. In your site's admin, open "Optimization", then "Catalog". The first time, choose "Build the catalog"; after that, "Rebuild the catalog".
3. The card, "Build this site's content catalog?" or "Rebuild the content catalog?", shows what will change. Approve it with "Build the catalog" or "Rebuild and publish the catalog", and the catalog becomes a new numbered snapshot.
4. Read the tabs. "Items" lists each piece of content and its tags. "Values" shows which tags "Earned an audience" and which were "Held back". "Audiences" lists the audiences the catalog made. "Suggested tags" holds proposals.
5. To fill gaps in your tagging, choose "Propose tags" on "Suggested tags". Each proposal says what proposed it, an AI model or a keyless word match, and waits for you: "Approve the tag", "Decline the tag", or "Leave it proposed".

Good to know

• Undoing a rebuild restores the previous snapshot.
• A tag on at least two items earns a draft audience. To bring it to visitors, activate the audience; our engineers connect its interest on Personalization › "Engine" and set it up with you.
• The interests behind these audiences grow from what visitors do with your content, such as adding to the cart or buying, and clicking a recommendation, at the points you give clicks. Only signals of intent teach an interest, and a plain page view is not one.
