# Grid recent

## Overview

A grid block that displays the recently viewed products in a grid layout. Uses Alpine.js to display products from the recently viewed products store.

## Block limitations

This is a private block. It is intended for use only within specific parent blocks and should not be added directly to sections.

## Common use cases

* Display recently viewed products to encourage customers to return to products they've seen
* Adjust item count based on available space in your layout
* Use responsive visibility to show different counts on mobile vs desktop
* Product cards are dynamically loaded to prevent layout shifts

## Compatible blocks

The following blocks can be nested within this block:

* [Product card](/slab/content/blocks/cards/product-card.md) (dynamically loaded)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.brickspacelab.com/slab/content/blocks/all-pagination/products/grid-recently-viewed.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
