This is very possible to achieve. 

Pre-requisites are (1) Your tracking is correctly occuring from your non-Episerver application, and (2) you have synchronised the commerce catalogue into Episerver Perform. After that you should be able to (3) retrieve recommendations and display them however you like.

(1) Tracking and (3) Recommendations

This can be done either via the

• Server-to-Server API (https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/personalization/integration-guides/server-to-server-api/)

or the

• Javascript API (https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/personalization/integration-guides/javascript-api/).

(2) Commerce Catalogue Sync

Catalogue data formats etc. can be found here https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/personalization/integration-guides/javascript-api/

Hi Marcus,

Thank you for the response.

I actually have to setup tracking in my application and the syncing of catalog as well. I followed the below link

https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/profile-store/install-and-configure-tracking-for-profile-store/

to include tracking and profile store into the application but seems this implementation is for an EPiServer site. I also tried to use the existing recommendation service in the QuickSilver demo solution but I had no luck.

Yes, that is the out of the box tracking as the Episerver native integration is obviously easier to work with if you can.

Having said that, you can use our RESTful tracking API (have a look here https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/tracking/tracking-api/) and the C# API for doing the same (examples of which can be found here https://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/profile-store/using-tracking-core-api-with-profile-store/)

I hope that helps?
