Product indexing

The int_algolia cartridge keeps your site’s data in sync with Algolia.

Concepts

B2C object A business object of any B2C class such as Product, Pricebook, ProductInventoryList, or ProductInventoryRecord. A Product object has built-in and custom attributes, such as ID, name, shortDescription, or longDescription.
Algolia product record The JSON product object stored in the Algolia index. It has a different structure to that of a B2C Product object and contains all relevant data you configure the jobs to export, such as price, in_stock. Some of these attributes are simple values and some are more complex, see Indexing attributes.
