Saved Search Implementation Guide
Repliers' Saved Search feature is a powerful tool that enhances user engagement and retention by allowing clients to receive timely notifications on property listings that match their specific criteria. Clients receive notifications via email and/or text message when properties that match their search criteria are listed, sold, or experience price changes. These timely alerts keep clients in the loop and contribute to user retention, ensuring they are always informed about relevant listings.
This guide will walk you through the various functionalities of the Saved Search feature, from creation to customization.
Create a Saved Search: Set up saved searches tailored to client preferences.
Filter Saved Searches: Narrow down saved searches based on specific criteria.
Update a Saved Search: Modify existing saved searches to reflect new preferences.
Delete a Saved Search: Remove saved searches that are no longer needed.
Get Details of a Specific Saved Search: Retrieve comprehensive information about a particular saved search.
Saved Searches can be configured to send alerts to clients for the following scenarios:
New Listings: Notify clients when new properties match their search criteria.
Price Changes: Alert clients about any changes in the prices of listings they are interested in.
Sold Listings: Inform clients when a property they were tracking is sold.
Alerts can be sent based on the client's preferred frequency:
Instantly
Daily
Weekly
Monthly
Alerts can be delivered via:
Email
Text Message
Matches and Notifications
Saved search email and text alerts are 2-way, meaning the client can reply directly to the message and their reply will be sent to the agent. Regardless of if they reply to a text or an email, the agent will receive an email. The agent can also reply to the email and their reply will be sent to the client via email and/or text depending on their communication preferences.
When listings that are sent in alerts are clicked, they will redirect the client back to the agent's website. The redirect URL schemes are fully customizable, and the context is sent in the URL as query string parameters.
When a listing meets the client's criteria, a match is created. Through our APIs, you can:
Filter Matches: Find matches for specific clients or criteria.
Update Matches: Mark matches as viewed or liked by clients.
Get Match Details: Retrieve detailed information about specific matches.
A Saved Search must be associated with an agent and a client:
Agent: The sender of the alerts.
Client: The receiver of the alerts.
To create Saved Searches, you must first create agents and clients using our agents and clients API resources.
The email templates used for Saved Searches can be fully customized to match your branding and preferences. If no customization is provided, the default Repliers theming will be used.
We have extended support for Saved Searches through webhooks, enabling real-time event-driven integrations. The following events are supported:
search.created
search.updated
search.deleted
search.match.created
search.match.updated
These events can be used to trigger workflow automation with other systems. For example, you can push a notification to a mobile app when a new match is created.
Personalization: Tailored searches improve user satisfaction by providing relevant property updates.
User Retention: Regular alerts keep clients engaged and returning to your platform.
