I've been trying to figure out a way to add how many likes were received to a product using structured data. Is what I have below correct? Or would the second example be more correct?
Is my usage of ["Product","InteractionCounter"] for the type correct in the first example?
I'm trying to have the google show a likes counter much like the aggregateRating property of Product.
I'm also not sure what the url in offers is supposed to point to or if it's necessary. Any ideas?
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "https://schema.org",
"#type": ["Product","InteractionCounter"],
"name": "CC-1",
"description": "Wedding Cake",
"interactionType":{
"#type":"LikeAction",
"name": "Likes",
"description": "Likes Received"
},
"interactionService": {
"#type":"WebSite",
"url": "https://example.com/index.php?page=gallery"
},
"userInteractionCount": 55
}
</script>
OR
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "https://schema.org",
"#type": "Product",
"name": "CC-1",
"description": "Wedding Cake",
"additionalProperty": {
"#type": "PropertyValue",
"name": "Likes",
"description": "Likes Received",
"value": 55
}
}
</script>
This is what I have right now:
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "https://schema.org",
"#type": ["Product","InteractionCounter"],
"name": "CC-1",
"description": "Wedding Cake with bla bla bla",
"category": "Wedding Cakes",
"brand": {
"#type": "Brand",
"logo": "https://example.com/images/logo.png",
"slogan": "Cakes Are Nice"
},
"offers": {
"#type": "Offer",
"url": "https://example.com/anvil",
"priceCurrency": "CAD",
"price": "119.99"
},
"image": "https://example.com/collection/wedding_cakes/mid_def/CC-1",
"interactionType":{
"#type":"LikeAction",
"name": "Likes",
"description": "Likes Received"
},
"interactionService": {
"#type":"WebSite",
"url": "https://mimozas.com/index.php?page=gallery"
},
"userInteractionCount": "55 PLACEHOLDER"
}
If the product is the subject of content, then it makes sense to indicate likes as part of the type Product. My suggestion for you:
{"#context":"https://schema.org",
"#type":"Product",
"name":"CC-1",
"description":"Wedding Cake",
"subjectOf":{
"#type": "InteractionCounter",
"interactionType":{
"#type":"LikeAction",
"name":"Likes",
"description":"Likes Received"
},
"interactionService":{
"#type":"WebSite",
"url":"https://example.com/index.php?page=gallery"
},
"userInteractionCount":"55"
}
}
And be careful about inverted commas.
My addition after expanding the question.
I'm trying to have the google show a likes counter much like the
aggregateRating property of Product.
Google has no direct support for the type InteractionCounter - read more Explore the search gallery. However, in the rich test results of my suggestion, there are no errors or warning messages from Google:
Probably needs experimentation.
When I test this code in validator, I am getting WARNING for the property price and the property priceCurrency. How do I fix this?
Thank you.
The property price is not recognized by the schema (e.g. schema.org) for an object of type Service.

In the markup, properties price and priceCurrency are located/belong to the Service object/type, which does not contain such properties. Those properties belong to the Offer, so they should be moved accordingly.
So just move them one level up, outside of the Service, so that they belong to the Offer object/type:

A lot of businesses serve multiple municipalities.
How should this be expressed in https://schema.org/areaServed (JSON LD)?
Eg as per https://schema.org/Service:
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "https://schema.org/",
"#type": "Service",
"serviceType": "Weekly home cleaning",
"provider": {
"#type": "LocalBusiness",
"name": "ACME Home Cleaning"
},
"areaServed": {
"#type": "City",
"name": "New York"
},
... ?
</script>
Should it be:
"areaServed": {
"#type": "City",
"name": "New York"
},
"areaServed": {
"#type": "City",
"name": "Buffalo"
},
"areaServed": {
"#type": "City",
"name": "Syracuse"
},
Or something like:
"areaServed": {
"#type": "City",
"name": "New York",
"name": "Buffalo",
"name": "Syracuse"
},
Or something else?
According to the Schema documentation, the property areaServed can have values expected to be one of these types:
AdministrativeArea
GeoShape
Place
Text
There is no type City here as you indicate in your example. So I used type Place for my suggestion for you (alternative is the type AdministrativeArea):
{
"#context": "https://schema.org/",
"#type": "Service",
"serviceType": "Weekly home cleaning",
"provider": {
"#type": "LocalBusiness",
"name": "ACME Home Cleaning"
},
"areaServed": {
"#type": "Place",
"name":[ "New York","Buffalo"]
}
}
To use an alternative just change the name to type.
City is a "More specific Type" of "AdministrativeArea" according to schema.org documentation, so nothing wrong with using that.
(unfortunately haven't got enough points to write this as a comment under nikant25s comment but thought it was important to mention)
I would write something like this:
"areaServed": [{
"#type": "City",
"name": “New York”,
"sameAs": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_City"
},
{
"#type": "City",
"name": “Buffalo”,
"sameAs": (the Wiki-page for the right Buffalo)
}],
Since there are a lot of cities with the same name it’s probably good to use the sameAs property to specify which one you mean :)
I'm trying to set more than one currency code within a single order.
I sent this json to the PayPal API Create order with two currency codes, EUR and USD, distributed at random.

I have searched through the PayPal documentation and on Google, but it is not clear if it is possible to set up two or more currencies in a single order.
The inserted curriences (EUR & USD) are both approved in my PayPal settings following these steps from PayPal FAQ:
EDIT:
If I need to set multiple products with two curriences in a single transaction, I cannot do it? Have I do separate the order in two order, apply a single currency code for each of them?
Multiple differing values of currency_code are not supported. Entire Order request must have the same currency_code.
I'm trying to add the specialty property, following the Schema.org docs using JSON-LD. According to the QAPage docs, specialty is indeed a valid value for this schema type.
The problem is when I validate with Google's Structured Data Testing Tool, it spits out this error:
(The property specialty is not recognised by Google for an object of type Question.)
Now, Schema.org is partly ran by Google, so I don't feel it's an error on their end. Pretty sure it may be JSON-LD syntax but I've been trying different things all morning. Could anybody shed any light on the issue?

The specialty property needs to be added to WebPage (or one of its sub-types, like QAPage).
You added it to Question (where it’s not listed).
