Context data

Multi-language support

Dynamic Yield supports multi-language and multi-locale websites by automatically displaying the correct data on product recommendations (such as the product name in the language currently served on the page) and variations. To adapt Dynamic Yield campaigns this way, add the lng attribute to the page context:

DY.recommendationContext = {type: 'HOMEPAGE', lng: 'en_GB'};

The lng value must match a value set up in your product feed. Learn more about multi-language support.
