In this article, we share our vision for the future of analytics on FastStore and invite you to share your thoughts.

Before we start, it's important to highlight that this is not a commitment to any of the following topics, and we have not yet planned when they will be implemented or even if they'll come to be. That being said, we envision an ever-evolving analytics solution for FastStore, and we count on you to build it together with us.

The search query has been enhanced to allow cross-selling and upselling of products. Also, the new subscribeToNewsletter mutation is now available in the FastStore API. In the FastStore UI, the Slider and PriceRange components now allow ref forwarding.

To go live, FastStore projects developed with Gatsby 4 and Next.js require a new environment variable. This new setting relates to improving and automating the hosting flow in WebOps.

PLPs now support price range filtering, and nonexistent PDPs can now handle 404 errors. Also, more components have been updated to conform to the new Base Store Theming architecture.

The FastStore UI now includes the Hero and Dropdown components. Also, the FastStore API was enhanced to better support page error handling. Global changes were also implemented to enable price range filtering on PLPs.

New cart-related events are now being tracked, and enhancements in the LCP score have been implemented. Also, more components have been updated to use the Base Store theming structure.

New OutOfStock and ProductCard components added to the FastStore UI. Also, improvements in the FastStore API now allow fetching additional properties of a product.

Users will now need to authenticate to VTEX in order to access WebOps previews generated for pushed commits in a FastStore repository.

We've recently changed the configurations needed for the secure subdomain. Hence, if you come across the "This connection is not private" error while trying to complete an order at your store website, check if your website's secure subdomain is pointing to secure.{hostname}.cdn.vtex.com, where {hostname} is the complete address of your store.

We’ve recently launched VTEX Headless CMS 1.x. For this new version to properly work, the Releases app must be installed and configured on the VTEX account.
