Default Clickstream Engine recommendations | HCL Digital Experience
The Clickstream Engine uses transaction data stored with a special user to generate default predictions.
The buildstats
utility generates clickstream transaction data,
based on the transaction set named in the db.applic.transaction.source
parameter. This transaction data is a summary of
all clickstream transaction data for users, based on transaction data from all configured
transaction sets. buildstats
, the LikeMinds server, and
other utilities identify the special user as one whose Lps_User_Data mentor_type
field is set to "z". There should be exactly one user with this
setting, not more. buildstats
will automatically generate
this user if custom IDs are not configured; otherwise, you need to create the user by hand,
since buildstats
cannot know what restrictions apply to the
custom IDs.
Run the buildstats
utility on a regular basis. By default, the
installer sets buildstats
to run once a day. Some applications use
their own business logic to assign the score to items. If you want to override the score field value
to use your application's scoring instead, run buildstats
using the
-noscore
argument.
