useAutocomplete()
This is the React InstantSearch v7 documentation. React InstantSearch v7 is the latest version of React InstantSearch and the stable version of React InstantSearch Hooks.
If you were using React InstantSearch v6, you can upgrade to v7.
If you were using React InstantSearch Hooks, you can still use the React InstantSearch v7 documentation, but you should check the upgrade guide for necessary changes.
If you want to keep using React InstantSearch v6, you can find the archived documentation.
About this Hook
The useAutocomplete Hook isn’t currently available in React InstantSearch, but you can make it yourself using useConnector() along with connectAutocomplete.
Refer to the connectAutocomplete documentation for the full API reference.
If you’re building an autocomplete, you should use the Autocomplete library which lets you build a full-featured, accessible autocomplete experience. This is the recommended way of building an autocomplete search with Algolia.
