Algolia Overview#

Algolia is a powerful search-as-a-service platform that makes it easy to deliver fast, relevant search experiences to users. The Algolia API allows developers to programmatically manage search indices, perform searches, and capture insights about search activity. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to automate and integrate Algolia's capabilities with other apps, creating efficient workflows that enhance search functionalities and user engagement. You can sync data across platforms, automate content indexing, and trigger actions based on search patterns or user behaviors.

Action Code#

import algolia from "../../algolia.app.mjs";

export default {
  key: "algolia-create-objects",
  name: "Create Objects",
  description: "Adds an array of JavaScript objects to the given index. [See docs here](https://www.algolia.com/doc/api-reference/api-methods/save-objects/)",
  version: "0.0.2",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    algolia,
    indexName: {
      propDefinition: [
        algolia,
        "indexName",
      ],
    },
    objects: {
      label: "Objects",
      description: "An array of JavaScript objects, each corresponding to a new object in your search index. It's recommended you create this array of objects in a prior code step, then select expression mode and enter a variable reference to that array here",
      type: "string[]",
    },
    autoGenerateObjectIDIfNotExist: {
      type: "boolean",
      label: "Auto Generate Object ID If Not Present",
      description: "If an objectID property is not present on objects, automatically assign on. Defaults to true",
      optional: true,
      default: true,
    },
  },
  methods: {
    parseObject(object) {
      return (typeof object === "object")
        ? object
        : JSON.parse(object);
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const parsedObjects = this.objects.length
      ? this.objects.map((object) => this.parseObject(object))
      : this.parseObject(this.objects);

    const response = await this.algolia.createObjects({
      indexName: this.indexName,
      objects: parsedObjects,
      options: {
        autoGenerateObjectIDIfNotExist: this.autoGenerateObjectIDIfNotExist,
      },
    });

    $.export("$summary", "Successfully created objects");

    return response;
  },
};

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Algolia	`algolia`	`app`	This component uses the Algolia app.
Index Name	`indexName`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Objects	`objects`	`string[]`	An array of JavaScript objects, each corresponding to a new object in your search index. It's recommended you create this array of objects in a prior code step, then select expression mode and enter a variable reference to that array here
Auto Generate Object ID If Not Present	`autoGenerateObjectIDIfNotExist`	`boolean`	If an objectID property is not present on objects, automatically assign on. Defaults to true

Action Authentication#

Algolia uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Algolia account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Algolia APIs in both code and no-code steps.

In your Algolia Dashboard, select the API Keys section. Here you'll find your Application ID and API Keys. You can use either your Admin API Key or create another API key with permissions scoped to a specific index / operations (recommended).

Once done, enter both values below.
