How to get recently view product collection in Magento 2?

To do this programmatically, you need the collection function to get called in custom phtml file so that the product will be shown in the file.

Let’s say we have a module which is named “Magemonkeys_Recentlyview”

For that module, we have to create a block file Recentlyview.php at app/code/Magemonkeys/Recentlyview/Block/

namespace Magemonkeys\Recentlyview\Block;

class Recentlyview extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template
{
    protected $recentlyView;

    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context $context,
        \Magento\Reports\Block\Product\Viewed $recentlyView,
        array $data = []
    ) {
        $this->recentlyView = $recentlyView;
        parent::__construct($context, $data);
    }

    public function getRecentviewCollection()
    {
        return $this->recentlyView->getItemsCollection()->load();
    }
}

namespace Magemonkeys\Recentlyview\Block;

class Recentlyview extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template

{

protected $recentlyView;

public function __construct(

\Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template\Context $context,

\Magento\Reports\Block\Product\Viewed $recentlyView,

array $data = []

) {

$this->recentlyView = $recentlyView;

parent::__construct($context, $data);

}

public function getRecentviewCollection()

{

return $this->recentlyView->getItemsCollection()->load();

}

Now we can call that block function in custom phtml file

create app/code/Magemonkeys/Recentlyview/view/recentlyview.html file

$productviewcollection = $this->getRecentviewCollection();
foreach ($productviewcollection as $recentlyview)
{
     echo $recentlyview->getName();
}

$productviewcollection = $this->getRecentviewCollection();

foreach ($productviewcollection as $recentlyview)

{

echo $recentlyview->getName();

}

Now check the result by clearing the cache.
