@o2s/blocks.recommended-products

A simple block displaying static content in the form of an RecommendedProducts.

The recommended-products block shows related or cross-sell products (e.g. up to 6) based on the current context. It can exclude the current product to avoid duplicates. Content editors place the block; the Products integration supplies recommendations. Ideal for product detail pages and cart/checkout flows.

Related products – Configurable limit (e.g. up to 6); excludes current product
Cross-sell – Show complementary or alternative products
Products integration – Uses Products (e.g. Medusa.js) for recommendation logic
CMS placement – Block placed via CMS; recommendations from integration

Content editors place the block on product or cart pages. Developers connect a Products integration with recommendation support.

Frontend

import * as RecommendedProducts from '@o2s/blocks.recommended-products/frontend';

export const renderBlocks = async (blocks: CMS.Model.Page.SlotBlock[]) => {
    return blocks.map((block) => {
        if (block.type === 'recommended-products') {
            return (
                <RecommendedProducts.RecommendedProductsRenderer
                    key={block.id}
                    id={block.id}

                    locale={locale}
                    accessToken={session?.accessToken}

        // ... other blocks
    });
};

SDK

Use the SDK to fetch recommended products:

import { sdk } from '@o2s/blocks.recommended-products/sdk';

// SDK uses NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL for the API base URL
const recommendedProducts = await sdk.blocks.getRecommendedProducts(
    { id: 'block-id' },
    { 'x-locale': 'en' },
    accessToken
);

About Blocks in O2S

Blocks are self-contained, reusable UI components that combine harmonizing and frontend components into a single package. Each block is independently packaged as an NPM module and includes three primary parts: API Harmonization Module, Frontend Components, and SDK Methods. Blocks allow you to quickly add or remove functionality without impacting other components of the application.
