Release Summary 25.19 | Sep 18, 2025

ENG-30660, ENG-30706

Social Proof:

Enable Optimization for Older Experiences in Social Proof

The Social Proof UI now supports enabling optimization at the variation level for older experiences and templates. A new site-level configuration—"enable social proof optimization for older experiences"—allows merchandisers to activate optimization without creating new experiences. Once enabled, the optimization toggle becomes available within legacy variations. Server-side integrations support this without changes, while client-side integrations may require template updates for full functionality.

ENG-30964

Engage:

Content Test Drive Now Supports Multiple Image Attributes

The Content Test Drive now correctly handles multiple attribute names specified in the “Content Image Attribute Names” site configuration. If a comma-separated list of image attribute names is provided, the system will use the first available attribute with a valid image to display in test results. This ensures images render reliably when multiple attributes are configured.

ENG-30961

Find:

New Snapshot Type Control in SFI

SFI now supports filtering of snapshot types using new configuration properties. You can specify which snapshot types to allow or ignore via the allowed-snapshot-types and ignored-snapshot-types settings under the find-indexer-streaming path in application.conf. This gives you fine-grained control over event processing for different snapshot types, such as excluding metastore events when needed.

ENG-30970

Find:

Schema Patch Support Extended to Additional Item Types in SFI

SFI now supports property definition patching for additional item types including suggestions, query vectors, and query tags, in addition to products and content. This enhancement allows scenarios such as no-code activation for related searches, where a new property can be added to an active metastore snapshot for a suggestion item type and be automatically reflected in the Consul schema.

ENG-30845

Find:

Site-Level UER Weight Configuration Enabled

UER (User Engagement Ranking) weights for purchases, views, and clicks can now be customized per site. This allows teams to fine-tune ranking behavior, such as prioritizing clicks for offer-heavy catalogs. Updates are managed via Consul and take effect when the Global Rank Publisher runs.

ENG-30961

Find:

Configurable Snapshot Type Handling in SFI

Support has been added to allow or ignore specific snapshot types in the Streaming Find Indexer (SFI). Two new config entries, allowed-snapshot-types and ignored-snapshot-types, let teams control which snapshot events get processed. This helps filter out unwanted snapshots like "metastore" for more efficient indexing.

ENG-31056

RR Server Now Routes Inference API Calls via Proxy

RR Server has been updated to route SP Inference API calls through a proxy in the production environment, these calls continue to use the Marathon service configuration. This ensures consistent routing behavior across environments.

PLAT-4108

Scoped Action Metrics Enhanced with Incremental Ingest Tracking

The scoped action status response now includes a new metric incremental_touched to track items ingested from external channels during an active ProductMatch scoped action. This separates them from items directly updated (touched) or untouched (untouched), offering more accurate reporting.

ENG-30081

Ecommerce Sales Assistant Chatbot:

Full Site-Level Configuration Support

The Sales Assistant chatbot can now be fully configured for new clients directly from the LLM Configuration interface. eCommerce managers can specify tools, descriptions, gender options, agent prompts, and sample query-style mappings to simulate real product responses. These configurations are stored site-wise via the portal API and consumed during chatbot processing, allowing complete preview and alignment with brand requirements without backend intervention.

ENG-30082

Ecommerce Sales Assistant Chatbot: Expanded Configuration Options

The Ecommerce Sales Assistant chatbot setup page now includes flexible configuration fields for API keys, site details, product filters (e.g. gender, budget), tooltips, agent prompts, and query-style examples. These updates allow eCommerce managers to fully tailor chatbot behavior and output without backend support, streamlining deployment and customization.

ENG-30915

Date Format Mismatch for FTP Document Read

Resolved an issue where the application could not read documents from the FTP server due to a date format mismatch. The date format has now been aligned to ensure weekly automated document processing works as expected.

ENG-30979

Find:

Personalization Exception in Solr 9

An exception previously fixed for standard requests was missed when personalization was applied, causing failures during Solr 9 search queries.

This issue has now been resolved. Personalized search requests are executing successfully, supporting Solr 9 compatibility.

ENG-31104

Data Engineering , Social Proof:

Product Separator Handling in Social Proof API

We have fixed an issue in the spMessages API where it was returning an empty array when multiple product IDs were passed using the pipe (|) separator, particularly for category and cart page placements. The API now correctly returns all active campaigns and messages for the listed products without errors.

ENG-31081

Data Engineering , Social Proof:

Fix for Location Selector and Importance-Based Sorting in Badging API

We have fixed an issue where the location Selector for item pages was incorrectly showing extra attributes. It now displays only the correct element type as configured. Additionally, sorting of badges and messages is now unified based on the importance value, ensuring a consistent display order.
