# Implement AgenticLift

Technical guide for provisioning accounts, configuring project settings, modeling product data via the Smart Data Modeler, and activating agentic channels.

Setting up AgenticLift follows a sequential six-phase process. You must complete project configuration and data modeling before importing catalog data or activating channels.

The phases are as follows:

1. [Provision accounts and register with AI platforms](/agentic-commerce/agenticlift/provision-accounts.md)
2. [Configure project settings](/agentic-commerce/agenticlift/configure-project-settings.md)
3. [Model product data](/agentic-commerce/agenticlift/model-product-data.md)
4. [Import data](/agentic-commerce/agenticlift/import-data.md)
5. [Configure Agentic Channels](/agentic-commerce/agenticlift/configure-agentic-channels.md)
6. [Monitor operations](/agentic-commerce/agenticlift/monitor-operations.md)

## Prerequisites

Before starting, ensure the following items are ready or in progress:

- **commercetools Project**: Contact your Customer Success Manager (CSM) to provision a dedicated AgenticLift Project with the add-on activated. If you don't have a commercetools contract yet, you can [set up a trial project](https://commercetools.com/free-trial) to explore the Merchant Center and familiarize yourself with the platform before engaging with a CSM. The trial flag must be removed before production use.
- **Smart Data Modeler access**: Submit a support request with your project key and region to enable the [Smart Data Modeler](/merchant-center/ai-agents/sdm-agentic-channels.md).
- **Product catalog export**: Export your product catalog from your legacy system in CSV or JSON format.
- **Data readiness**: Audit your catalog data for required fields such as `brand`, `condition`, `gtin`, `image_link`, `description`, and product page URLs. Confirm your variant grouping logic. Variants of the same product must share an `item_group_id`.
