objectID to id

Hey @Mario8419, i have create a PR for a new feature to allow post processing. In this approach, you can add the id property to the payload before it gets push Algolia.

hey mario, from what I understand from your description, you want the Algolia record to have the id attribute instead of the objectID. Algolia objectID is required so another attribute can not take its place. If you want the id in the Algolia record, you can request a feature where the id attribute is also added to the Algolia record. This way the objectID and id will be in the Algolia record.

hey smomin, thx for your quick answer. This is what I was searching for, and of course it's a feature not a bug, so sry for posting it here, but couldn't find anything dealing with the id and objectID in algolia forum. that would be what would help in my case, but I don't know how it looks with other users of this plugin!

For now I solved my use case with partialUpdateObject for my search results. but don't know whether it's such a good way...but it's working for now...

...

for (var i = 0; result.hits.length; i++) {
      await searchIndex.partialUpdateObject({
        id: result.hits[i].objectID,
        objectID: result.hits[i].objectID
      })
    }
