The Product Block now works inside AMP Drag & Drop emails. You can add product content such as recommendations, catalog picks, product feeds, collections, and merchandising-triggered products, the same way you already do in HTML Drag & Drop emails.

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure:

Product Catalog Integration is enabled for your account.
At least one catalog is synced to your account.

Add Product Block

Refer to the steps below on how to add a product block in the AMP email editor.

Log in to the Netcore CE dashboard and click CREATE > Email > AMP.
Spot the Widget section in the left pane and drag & drop a Product block on the canvas.
Click on the block. Multiple options appear on the right pane.

📘
Dynamic Rule in Product Feeds

If no products are fetched due to an out-of-stock catalog, the email will be suspended. The journey will continue, but the email will not be sent.

If a dynamic rule is in a template and the product feed is deleted, the email will also be dropped, while the journey remains active.

When your template is ready using your desired elements and settings, click the Live Preview button to see how it will appear on the website.

Preview Product Block
Click the Preview button at the top of the editor.

Preview the Product Block

The preview pane opens with two columns.
- AMP Preview on the left shows how the email renders on AMP-supported clients like Gmail and Yahoo Mail.
- HTML/Fallback preview on the right shows how it renders everywhere else, and on AMP clients if the AMP version fails.
- Use the toggles at the top center to check how the block looks under different conditions:
- Desktop and Mobile icons switch both preview columns to that screen size.
- The clock-style icon switches between light mode and dark mode, so you can check contrast and readability either way.
- Click Back to editor to make more changes, or Close preview to exit.
Click Save & Close once you finish configuring the block.

📘
Important
If a template uses a product feed that gets deleted later, an error message will appear saying Feed used in this template has been deleted.

Campaign and Journey Availability

The product source you pick decides where the template can go.

Works in campaigns and journeys:

Static Product Picker
Product feed (custom feed)
Recommendation algorithms marked as campaign-compatible

Works in journeys only:

Collection
Merchandising events
Recommendation algorithms marked as journey-only

📘
Important Points to Remember

If a template has more than one Product Block, and even one block uses a journey-only source, the whole template becomes journey-only. It won't appear in campaign template selection, and the "Use in campaign" option disappears from the template flow. It still shows up normally in journey template selection.

You can't use Collection and Merchandising events in the same template. If one is already added, the other stays blocked.

Templates that use Collection show their template type as Product Collection in the journey flow, since this source needs an extra setup step there.

🌟
Good to know

The block shows a preview in the editor. It doesn't preview live or random products yet. Dynamic preview support arrives with a separate release.

Send test uses the current behavior for now. Enhancements for Collection, Merchandising events, and Recommendation-based templates arrive with a separate release.

Product Block errors show the same error message style you already see in HTML emails. No new pop-up interrupts your flow.

The existing Shopify Product Collection block doesn't change. It stays separate from the standard Product Block covered in this guide.

Product and block limits follow your account's global settings, the same as HTML emails.
