## Choosing profiles or trending products

Use **Recommendation profiles** when you want a specific Searchspring strategy. This is best for campaigns, category logic, or curated merchandising rules.

Use **Trending products** when you want a simple, broad product source from Searchspring without choosing a profile tag.

## Recommended fallback

Add a Collection module after AthosCommerce (Searchspring). This keeps the strategy useful if a profile tag returns no products.

# Troubleshooting

## Credentials missing appears

Complete the AthosCommerce (Searchspring) integration setup and add the Site ID.

## No products found for this profile

Choose a different profile tag, or update the profile in Searchspring so it returns products.

## No profile tags are available

Add profile tags in the AthosCommerce (Searchspring) integration settings before using the recommendation profiles data source.
