Get a Node's Children

GET 

/catalogs/:catalog_id/releases/:release_id/nodes/:node_id/relationships/children

Returns the child nodes for a node from a published catalog.

note

Currently, published catalogs are limited to the current release and two releases prior to the current release.

You can see the parent nodes a node is associated with in the bread_crumb metadata for each node. This is useful if you want to improve how your shoppers search your store, for example. See Product and Node Associations in Breadcrumb Metadata.

In a catalog, you can use a filter to return a list of nodes in a hierarchy structure that a product belongs to. You can use this to build breadcrumbs in your storefront. For more information, see Building breadcrumbs in a storefront.

The response lists the products associated with the nodes. If products are curated, they are displayed in curated_products. Product curation allows you to promote specific products within each of your hierarchies, enabling you to create unique product collections in your storefront.

  • If you don't provide any curated_products, products are listed by their updated_at time in descending order, with the most recently updated product first.
  • If you configure curated_products for only a few products, the curated products are displayed first and the other products are displayed in the order of updated_at time.
  • You can only curate 20 products or less. You cannot have more than 20 curated products.
  • If a curated product is removed from a node, the product is also removed from the curated_products list.
  • A product that is curated has the "curated_product": true attribute displayed.

  • Specify the node Ids in the filter expression.
  • You can have as many node Ids as you want.
  • It does not matter what order you specify the node Ids. The nodes are returned in the order they were last updated.
