Product Catalog Management provides a Product Discovery Context Definition template for you. However, you can't edit this out-of-the-box template. Instead you must extend the context definition to make a version that you can customize.
Extend context definitions instead of cloning them. When you extend a context definition, you can use the Sync option to easily upgrade the extended definitions to their latest version. Extending a context definition also ensures that all the mandatory mappings are preserved.
Before you extend the built-in context definition, check to see if there's an extended context definition you can use. Some organizations already have a customizable context definition called BrowseProductsCtxDefinition. If so, you can simply customize the existing context definition.
To extend the Product Discovery Context Definition, follow these instructions:
- From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Context Service, and then select Context Definitions.
-
On the Standard Definitions tab, click
corresponding to ProductDiscoveryContext, and then select
Extend.
- Enter a name, ensure that ProductDiscoveryContext is selected in the Inherited From field, and click Next.
-

- Ensure that the Automatic Salesforce object mapping and the Mark as Default checkboxes are deselected.
