Overview
Layers integrates with popular analytics, personalization, and promotional tools to enhance your search and discovery experience. All integrations are configured through the Layers dashboard, making it easy to enable and manage connections without modifying your theme code. The integration system is designed to be:- Privacy-compliant: All integrations respect the same consent settings as the Layers Pixel
- Non-intrusive: Integrations only use services already loaded on the page
- Dashboard-managed: Enable or disable integrations with a single toggle
- Extensible: New integrations are added regularly based on merchant needs
Configuring Integrations
To manage your integrations:- Navigate to the Settings page in the Layers dashboard
- Select the Integrations tab

- Events are forwarded with the same payload structure as they are sent to Layers
- If an integration service is not available on the page, events will silently skip forwarding
