#Product pages cookbook

Cloning the entire cookbook is a great option if you're curious about the content of the Product Pages but don't want to follow the step-by-step creation process.

Clone this project

This clonable project contains the entire Product Page Cookbook, so you can compare recipes or examine their contents.

#Apps in your cloned Hygraph Recipes project

Some Product Page Recipes rely on apps to fetch and manage product data. When you clone an environment, any installed apps—such as Remote Data Apps and the Akeneo App—are copied along with it.

  • Remote data apps will work immediately without requiring additional setup.
  • The Akeneo App requires re-entering your own Akeneo secret keys for authentication. To do this, go to the Apps section in Hygraph, find the Akeneo app card, click Edit, and update the credentials with the keys from your Akeneo account.

Once configured, the apps will function just as they did in the original project!
