Coveo FollowItem Component (CoveoFollowItem)

The FollowItem component renders a widget that the end user can click to follow a particular item. A user following an item receives email notifications when the item changes.

Note:

A SearchAlerts component must be present in the page for this component to work. It is also necessary to meet certain requirements to be able to use this component (see Deploying Search Alerts on a Coveo JS Search Page).

This component is a result template component (see Result Templates).
