The analytics_callback function (coming soon) is used as middleware to integrate Algolia and an analytics tool, such as Google Analytics or Adobe Analytics.
Same-site Detail Pages
The basic Embedded Search will link out to the TechTransfer.nih.gov website for detail pages. If you would like to keep users on your own site instead of sending them to our site, tweak the SearchResultTemplate parameter and use the code below into your web page where you display the details page for a search result, reload your page, and it should start working immediately.
<div class="ott-embed">
<div class="placeholder">Loading available technologies...</div>
