Storefront events by framework
The list of supported events can differ between eventing frameworks. The following tables describe the events supported on each framework and the equivalent event names.
Event names by framework
The following table lists all storefront events that Adobe Commerce publishes to the Adobe Client Data Layer in the browser. These events send data to Product Recommendations and Live Search, and also send data to Adobe Experience Platform Edge, through the Data Connection extension for use in other Adobe Experience Cloud Solutions, such as Real-Time CDP, Adobe Journey Optimizer, Analytics, Target, and so on.
