The release includes support for newly available analytics from
Google, as well as enhanced status detail messages that will help
brands better manage third-party listings across the Yext Publisher
Network. A new React component library and the “Solstice” algorithm
update empower developers to build sophisticated first-party
experiences with Yext Search.*
“Businesses today have to contend with an increasingly complex
digital landscape. Instead of managing dozens of single-purpose
applications, organizations should be empowered to consolidate
essential functionality into one platform that can power both first
and third-party experiences,” said Max Shaw, SVP of Product
Management at Yext. “The features included in our Summer Release
help businesses do just that. With Yext, organizations have a
centralized platform that can be leveraged to create seamless
multi- or omnichannel digital experiences that are more efficient,
cost effective, and gratifying for the end-user.”
The Summer '22 Release includes the following features:
- Listings Updates: Newly available analytics from Google
will provide further visibility into engagement metrics, as well as
the specific keywords that surface listings in search results.
Improved status detail messages will give companies an easier way
to manage and troubleshoot Listings across the industry’s largest
network of 250+ direct integration partners.
- Custom Pages Development: An improved, open technical
architecture allows external developers to more easily create
SEO-optimized landing pages at scale. Developers can build locally,
connect GitHub repositories, and take advantage of modern
development tools to quickly deploy pages with content stored in
the Yext Knowledge Graph.
- AI Data Cleaning**: An addition to the Connectors
framework takes user-provided examples of input/output
transformations to create and apply a machine learning model for
cleaning data. This added flexibility is extremely helpful for
users who would otherwise write complex functions or format data
manually.
- Fully Custom Search UI: Developers have access to a new
React component library, which is a great resource for those
looking to build a bespoke frontend experience with Yext Search
components. The first major version of the library includes a wide
range of customizable features that allow for increased flexibility
when designing a user interface, such as FilterSearch, Facets, and
more.
- Solstice Algorithm Update: With the Solstice algorithm
update, administrators can optimize their search experiences even
further with Custom Phrases. The update also introduces Multi-Hop
Relationships, which support complex user questions that require
information from various sources at the same time. With Multi-Hop
Search, end-users can query data that is stored on related
entities, several “hops” away in the Yext Knowledge Graph.
