Which API key should be used for Algolia?

[abeldotam]

Hi folks 👋
Hope you are alright, I've a small question.

I would like to implement Algolia Search on my Vitepress's website, but the documentation is a bit synthetic (link)

That's the only guideline for setting up this, and on Algolia I've this: no less than 4 API key.

---

My question is: which one should I use?

• The Search-only?
• The Admin key?
• The Usage key?
• The monitoring key? (Doubt, for this one)

Also, is there any mandatory step for implementing Algolia?

I wasn't sure if that's an issue (so I created a discussion), but if it is, that's a lack of documentation and maybe the answers here could help the next ones who are wondering also.

Cheers

search only - public API key to use in your frontend code

Also, is there any mandatory step for implementing Algolia?

Likely no. The provided crawler config should work fine.

Awesome, thanks!

It seems to work for the connexion.
From what I can see, the crawler will do it jobs tomorrow, hope it'll works straight out of the box 🤞

In anycase, thanks for the awesome work and the quick answer.
I wish you a very good day (you can close the issue if that's good for you). 🙂
