Catalog
Hello Folks,
I'm inquiring whether Braze Catalog supports the use of nested lists within catalogs. This would be beneficial for organizing multiple vouchers associated with the same retailer, as each voucher may contain multiple details.
For instance, consider a scenario involving a retailer offering various vouchers with distinct validity periods and redemption instructions. To effectively organize and present this information, nesting the voucher details within a single catalog item would be ideal.
Please confirm whether Braze Catalog accommodates such a structure.
Example:
deal 1
deal title:
deal url:
deal banner imaage
etc..
deal 2
deal title:
deal url:
deal banner imaage
etc..
Thanks

Hey Bhavesh - yep this is the exact structure you would do within Braze Catalogs.
Check this image for reference.
You would then cycle through them as per the documentation here:
{% catalog_items BenTest %} {{ items[0].title }} {{ items[0].url }} {{ items[0].banner-image }}
Hope that helps!
Hey Bhavesh,
I believe there's no nesting in Catalog items.
The easiest approach would be to have each retailer as an 'id' and list the deals like this:
If really want all of a deal's info in one item/cell, you could use a comma-separated string, i.e. "Deal title, Deal url, etc" and then use Liquid '| split' to split the values in message!
This is really shooting off the top of my dome without testing it but you could potentially nest data inside a content block with JSON or similar, add the content block liquid as the catalog item, and pull that content block with the catalog if for some reason you need that level of nesting in a catalog item. Struggling for a use case to be honest. Again, untested but I'd personally I'd go with the solutions above unless you are looking for some unique level of complexity.
